Laws of Planetary Motion by Johannes Kepler, published 1618.
A planetary geologist needs to have at least a master's degree, and for most jobs a PhD is required. It's necessary to complete courses in geology, physics, chemistry, and other applicable sciences.
Most likely- you will need a Ph.D or even more education to be a planetary geologist. That is a highly specialized field, and if you plan on being directly involved in work which contributes to the subject, a doctorate of Science with a specialization in Planetary science will be necessary (say, if you were to work for NASA). However, if you plan on taking a job as a teacher in a high school, or working for the EPA, a Ph.D will not be required.
A geologist studies rocks, among other things related to the earth.
A planetary geologist studies rocks on other planets. They analyze the composition, structure, and history of rocks to understand the geology of other planets in our solar system.
Yes, a planetary geologist can become an astronaut. NASA has selected astronauts with a variety of backgrounds, including geology, to participate in space missions. Training as an astronaut involves not only technical skills but also physical fitness and teamwork.
The person could be a geologist or an astrophysicist. The forming of solar objects is generally part of the overlapping fields of planetary science.
Start with basic geology, and then start finding areas that are not basic. When you can understand how they work, you'll be ready to go on in learning what geology is like when it is VERY unusual.
geologist
Planetary science is an interdisciplinary study, involving physics, geology, astronomy, environmental studies, and other fields, which tries to understand what planets are made of, how they operate, and differences between them in the known universe. This is done by analyzing the key features of planets and their systems.
petrologist
A geologist could tell you what kind of rock that is. I am studying to become a geologist.
The only human's remains on the moon are those of geologist Eugene Shoemaker who was an expert on planetary collisions. His ashes was carried to abroad NASA's lunar prospector spacecraft who crashed into crater on 31 July 1999.
