The geology of chocolate bars...
It's more than 50 years since we left the Moon and, as far as I can see, we still have no equivalent for the prefix in the word 'Geology', the science of the physical structure of the Earth and its rocks.
We have Exo-geology, and lunar geology and planetary geology but no xxxology where xxx is a prefix denoting the study of non-Earths.
Who can help me out, here?
