4. What Is Astrogeology?
   Brief and Straightforward Guide What is astrogeology?  
   http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-astrogeology.htm
   
   Extractions: ad_unit_target='mainAdUnit'; X Close this window Astrogeology is like the Earth sciences, but for other bodies in our solar system. The field is sometimes called planetary geology, exogeology, or xenogeology. There is far less data available for the scientific study of other planets as there is for Earth, but that doesn't stop scientists from trying to make inferences about them. The field astrogeology has specific names for the study of each body in the solar system: Heliology for the study of the Sun, hermeology for Mercury, cytherology for Venus, selenology for the Moon, areology for Mars, zenology for Jupiter, kronology for Saturn, uranology for Uranus, poseidology for Neptune and hedeology for Pluto. Astrogeology also encompasses the study of comets and asteroids. The creation of the field is usually attributed to Eugene Shoemaker, a prominent astronomer and geologist. Some astrogeology studies receive funding from the U.S. Geological Survey and space-related groups such as NASA . The Astrogeology Research Program was founded in 1961 as a subgroup of the U.S. Geological Survey, with Eugene Shoemaker acting as its first director.

The Geologic History of the Moon (Wilhelms, 1987) and To a Rocky Moon Our story begins with a brief summary (taken from Wilhelms, 1993) of the pioneering astrogeologic research activities that took place at Coon Butte/Coon Mountain, or Barringer Meteorite Crater (Meteor Crater) just east of Flagstaff from the late Nineteenth Century to the Early Twentieth Century. This is followed by a summary of the early considerations by prominent scientists of the Twentieth Century regarding the probable origin of lunar craters (impact versus volcanic) and speculations on the geology of the Moon.

For information on how to join the seminar, go to: http://nai.arc.nasa.gov/seminars/seminar_detail.cfm?ID=117 Posted by Keith Cowing at 1:37 PM Permalink Comments (0) Date: December 6-7th, 2007 Venue: NASA Ames Research Center, Auditorium, Building N-245, Mountain View, CA Organizing Committee: Ignacio Mosqueira (NASA Ames/SETI Institute), Dale Cruikshank (NASA Ames) Owing to spacecraft missions and groundbased observations, we possess a wealth of Solar System data. The richness of the observations should provide a solid foundation for our understanding of the early history of the Solar System. Yet, this abundance also means that in practice one must subdivide the problem into more manageable pieces. While this is a practical approach, before reliable conclusions can be obtained in this way, they must survive consistency checks, and a battery of tests involving a sufficiently broad observational sample. Only then can we attain a deeper understanding of the origins of planetary systems in general, and the Solar System in particular. Posted by Keith Cowing at 8:28 AM

    Extractions: Nature Cover photo: NASA NASA's NEAR-Shoemaker spacecraft landed on the asteroid 433 Eros, 145 million miles from Earth, on 12 February this year. During the final descent 70 high-resolution images of the asteroid's surface were obtained (see movie on http://near.jhuapl.edu/NEAR ), revealing the surface in remarkable detail. These images have now been analysed and three papers in this issue report the results. Parts of the asteroid's surface are covered with loose debris, possibly originating from a relatively young 7.6-km-diameter impact crater, and other areas are covered with distinctive smooth dusty surfaces.
