Description: This session will receive contributions on: a) Studies of geological processes in planets, including Earth, and minor bodies of the Solar System, that improve the understanding of the geological evolution of these celestial bodies (from experimental techniques, remote sensing, geophysics, geochemistry, geomorphology, mineralogy, petrology and/or numerical models); b) Multidisciplinary studies in the fields of Space Exploration, Astrogeology, and Astrobiology; c) (micro)Meteorites studies from petrology, mineralogy and/or geochemistry; d) Identification/search for new dense collection areas for meteorites in Chile; e) Present/past atmospheric events associated with the fall of extraterrestrial material such as fireballs; f) Impact processes occurred in Chile and its associated impact materials.
