GEOL 118 - Planets, Moons, and Meteorites

FC NSMA
4 credits
What does Earth inform us about the planets? The night sky is full of celestial bodies that have geologic processes similar to Earth. Our goals are to understand how we learn about these celestial bodies, examine the evolution of our Solar System, and discover geologic processes taking place in space. This geologic tour of space will focus on volcanic activity, surface processes, and plate tectonics of planets and moons.
