There is a branch of astronomy called planetary astronomy that takes geology and uses it to examine other planets, so yes rocks are studied in astronomy.

What nutrients does rocks have?
rocks and minerals
Do igenous rocks have layers called strata?
Yes, Sedimentary rock is a type of rock that is formed by sedimentation of material at the Earth's surface and within bodies of water. Sedimentation is the collective name for processes that cause mineral and/or organic particles (detritus) to settle and accumulate or minerals to precipitate from a solution. Particles that form a sedimentary rock by accumulating are called sediment. Before being deposited, sediment was formed by weathering and erosion in a source area, and then transported to the place of deposition by water, wind, mass movement or glaciers which are called agents of denudation. The sedimentary rock cover of the continents of the Earth's crust is extensive, but the total contribution of sedimentary rocks is estimated to be only 5% of the total volume of the crust. Sedimentary rocks are only a thin veneer over a crust consisting mainly of igneous and metamorphic rock. Sedimentary rocks are deposited in layers as strata, forming a structure called bedding. The study of sedimentary rocks and rock strata provides information about the subsurface that is useful for civil engineering, for example in the construction of roads, houses, tunnels, canals or other constructions. Sedimentary rocks are also important sources of natural resources like coal, fossil fuels, drinking water or ores. The study of the sequence of sedimentary rock strata is the main source for scientific knowledge about the Earth's history, including palaeogeography, paleoclimatology and the history of life. The scientific discipline that studies the properties and origin of sedimentary rocks is called sedimentology. Sedimentology is both part of geology and physical geography and overlaps partly with other disciplines in the Earth sciences, such as pedology, geomorphology, geochemistry or structural geology.
Are Volcanic rocks metal?
No. Volcanic rocks are made of the same materials that other rocks are.
Rocks are studied in the scientific discipline of .?
Rocks are studied in the scientific discipline of geology.
Rocks are studied in what scientific discipline?
Petrology. In the most general sense, the study of rocks falls under the discipline of geology. Geo means 'earth', and ology means 'the study of'.
What is a person that studied rocks?
A geologist studies rocks and the earth.
How does astronomy differ from the 4 major Sciences?
Astronomy is different from other science because astronomers study stars, planets, different space rocks, etc. In matter of fact, all science is different from one another. There is astronomy, phsycology, and more! You'll never be able to guess all of them! So, astronomy is different from other science, just like other science is different from astronomy and so on. So, all science is different from one another.
Which would usually get studied by a geologist?
Rocks
Make a sentence for astronomy?
An asteroid is a bunch of rocks moving through out solar system
A scientific study of rocks?
Petrology
Are rocks and minerals part of science?
Yes. Scientific study of rocks is called petrology, and the scientific study of minerals is called mineralogy.
How do you use geologist in a sentence?
The geologist studied the rocks from space. The geologist always stays busy by studying the different rocks.
How did scientists determine that the age of rocks farther from the mid-ocean ridge were older?
thye pulled rocks from a drill and studied them obviously
What geological era's rocks were first studied in Germany's Jura mountains?
Jurassic, after the location.
Because of the property of paleomagnetism?
The records of the Earth's magnetic field in rocks have been studied.
