Areography

/ˌæriːˈɒɡrəfi/ noun

Definition

The scientific description and study of Mars, including its surface features, atmosphere, and geographical characteristics.

Etymology

From Ares (Mars in Greek mythology) plus Greek 'graphia' (writing/description). The term emerged in the 1800s as telescopes improved and Mars observation became more systematic.

Kelly Says

Areography is a real scientific field with a surprisingly long history—in 1905, the famous astronomer Percival Lowell published detailed areographic observations, though many of his 'Martian canals' turned out to be optical illusions!
