The study of the universe beyond Earth is called ____
A
Astronomy
B
Geology
C
Oceanography
D
Meteorology
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Astronomy is the study of everything in the universe beyond Earth’s atmosphere. That includes objects we can see with our naked eyes, like the Sun, the Moon, the planets, and the stars . It also includes objects we can only see with telescopes or other instruments, like faraway galaxies and tiny particles.

Detailed explanation-2: -Use of terms “astronomy” and “astrophysics" However, since most modern astronomical research deals with subjects related to physics, modern astronomy could actually be called astrophysics. Some fields, such as astrometry, are purely astronomy rather than also astrophysics.

Detailed explanation-3: -In the past century or so, astronomy has been broadly split into two camps-observational astronomy (using telescopes and cameras to collect data about the night sky) and theoretical astronomy (using that data to analyze, model and theorize about how objects and phenomena work).

Detailed explanation-4: -Astronomy is the study of objects and phenomena beyond Earth, whereas cosmology is a branch of astronomy that studies the origin of the universe and how it has evolved. For example, the big bang, the origin of the chemical elements, and the cosmic microwave background are all subjects of cosmology.

Detailed explanation-5: -Atmospheric science – study of atmospheres and weather. Exoplanetology – various planets outside of the Solar System. Planetary formation – formation of planets and moons in the context of the formation and evolution of the Solar System. More items
