Exploring Our Planet and Beyond

Earth and space science covers the study of our planet, atmosphere, weather, and the vast universe.

Major Areas

  • Geology: Study of Earth's structure, rocks, and minerals.
  • Meteorology: Study of weather and climate.
  • Astronomy: Study of stars, planets, and galaxies.

Why It Matters

Earth and space science helps us predict natural disasters, understand climate change, and explore the mysteries of space.

Real-World Impact

Weather forecasters use meteorology to predict storms. Astronauts rely on astronomy for space missions.

Examples

  • A meteorologist predicts a hurricane using satellite data.

  • A geologist studies rock layers to find fossil fuels.

In a Nutshell

Earth and space science explains our planet, its weather, and the universe.
