i need to know if astronomony is earth science

It seems to part of the general category of earth science, even though this seems to be a bit of an oxymoron, since astronomy is about all that stuff that isn't on the earth.

Astronomy is not astrology...one is science, the other superstition, and probably does not belong in this category.\n\nMany scientific experiments have shown astrology to be a hoax.  You should check out:\n\nhttp://www.astrology-and-science.com/\n\nEven if you don't read the papers there telling about how repeated studies have shown no validity in astrology, you can read about common ways in which the astrologer will try to scam you when you do go to visit.

No, the big bang is not  pseudoscience. It is the best theory going for how scientists think the world works.\n\nPseudoscience would be like believing in something by faith alone with no proof at all, and no way to disprove it.

There's a couple that I consider necessary for survival.  One is:\n\nRollinson, H., 1993, Using Geochemical Data: Evaluation, Presentation, Interpretation; Pearson/Prentice Hall\n\nIt's a geochemistry book, but a PRACTICAL one.  It helped me get through my undergrad, and I'm using it again right now!\n\nThe "bible" for mineralogy is:\n\nNesse, W.D., 1991, Introduction to Optical Mineralogy, Second Edition; Oxford University Press\n\nIt's pretty much the standard, and still the best.  There are a couple different edtions.  I prefer the 2nd one to the third edtion.\n\nAlso, for petrography, get your hands on all the mineral atlases you can.  They are indespensible.\n\nWatch out though - buying geology references books can be addictive!  Have fun :)

no such - the phrase can be found as - advanced mammal like reptile or advanced mammal studies\n\nbut since it is homework then your teacher is probably looking for something like HUMAN as in an advanced ( on an evolutionary scale ) mammal ( teachers can be wrong too )

The Bible is not a science Book. What mistakes in it have scientists proved? Nothing. When the Bible touches on science it is very accurate. For example:\n\nHow is the earth is held in space? In ancient times when the Bible was being written, there was much speculation about how the earth was held in space. Some believed that the earth was supported by four elephants standing on a big sea turtle. Aristotle, a Greek philosopher and scientist of the fourth century B.C.E., taught that the earth could never hang in empty space. Instead, he taught that the heavenly bodies were fixed to the surface of solid, transparent spheres, with each sphere nested within another sphere. Supposedly the earth was on the innermost sphere, and the outermost sphere held the stars.\n\nYet, rather than reflect the fanciful, unscientific views existing at the time of its writing, the Bible simply stated (in about the year 1473 B.C.E.): "[God is] hanging the earth upon nothing." (Job 26:7) In the original Hebrew, the word for "nothing" used here means "not any thing," and this is the only time it occurs in the Bible. The picture it presents of an earth surrounded by empty space is recognized by scholars as a remarkable vision for its time. The Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament says: "Job 26:7 strikingly pictures the then-known world as suspended in space, thereby anticipating future scientific discovery."\n\nThe Bible's accurate statement predated Aristotle by over 1,100 years. Yet, Aristotle's views continued to be taught as fact for some 2,000 years after his death! Finally, in 1687 C.E., Sir Isaac Newton published his findings that the earth was held in space in relation to other heavenly objects by mutual attraction, that is, gravity. But that was close to 3,200 years after the Bible had stated with elegant simplicity that the earth is hanging "upon nothing."\n\nThe more people try to prove the Bible wrong, the more foolish they look.

Pangea.\nI'm atheist, so I pretty much believe in what scientists publish.

Astrobiology would probably be it.\n\nIt combines Physics, Chemistry and Biology to study how life might arise on other planets and moons.  Sometimes called the science without a subject.

Branches\nThe physical sciences include:\n\nAstronomy, the study of the universe beyond the atmosphere of the Earth. \nChemistry, the science dealing with the composition of substances, their interactions with energy and each other. \nMany of the earth sciences, including: \nGeology, the study of the planetary structure of Earth and the physical processes which shape it. \nHydrology, the study of the movement and distribution of water across the Earth's surface. \nMeteorology, the study of weather patterns and other atmospheric phenomena. \nOceanography, the study of the ocean as a physical system \nPhysics, the quantitative science dealing with matter and energy.

According to the US Geological Survey (USGS), the Earth is approximately 4.5 billion years old.\n\nThe articles below discuss the evidence for this estimate.

Yes, it's a fact.\n\nAlso the earth is not flat, it's round. (Bible wrong)\nThe sun does not set in a puddle of mud. (Koran wrong)\nThe sun does not revolve around the earth (Bible wrong) \nThe Earth does not have 4 corners. (Bible wrong)\n\nEvolution is a fact. All life on earth evolved from other life on earth. If you can't accept this, SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP but don't try to pass your fairytales off as science (intelligent design). They are not science.\n\nStop trying to sneak Jesus into the science classroom dressed in a white lab coat.\n\nIf someone don't understand evolution, they should try studying it, rather than asking stupid questions like, "If we evolved from monkeys, then why are there still monkeys?" - wow, some people are just so pathetically stupid, it makes me want to cry.

Yes,What you have read is right.Only Hindu religion gives a strong base and evidence in the cosmology.The position and movement of the planets,stars,comets and other celestial bodies influences each and every matter in the earth.Even earth influence the other bodies also.You can refer Vedas,and other religious books of Hindus which tells about cosmology.I really appreciate for your interest in Hindu religion Cosmology.Good Luck

I believe the poetic analogy sought here is "a dream."\n\nHowever, I have no clue why this question appears under "Earth Sciences & Geology."\n\nHope this helps!

geology is earth science.
