      That is a really good question!
      I really like how you can figure out the history of the Earth through the information ‘stored’ in rocks. It’s like a puzzle that you’ve got to unravel and once you’ve got all the pieces you can put them back together and learn something about how our planet works. I don’t think there are many sciences that let you do that.
      On top of that, they can be really pretty!
