Astroballistics
The study of the phenomena arising out of the motion of a solid through a gas at speeds high enough to cause ablation; for example, the interaction of a meteoroid with the atmosphere.
Astroballistics uses the data and methods of astronomy, aerodynamics, ballistics, and physical chemistry.
