Planetary Science

Planetary Science is the interdisciplinary study of planets, moons, and planetary systems, including the processes that shape them. It encompasses various fields such as astronomy, geology, meteorology, and chemistry, aiming to understand the formation, evolution, and dynamics of celestial bodies in our solar system and beyond. Planetary scientists investigate the characteristics of planets and their atmospheres, surface processes, and potential for life, as well as the interactions between different planetary systems. Research includes analyzing data from telescopes, spacecraft missions, and simulations to gather insights about phenomena like planetary climate, geology, and habitability.
