If you're going in alphabetical order, a seismologist studies earthquakes while a serologist studies blood serum. Somewhere in between is what kind of scientist who studies the moon?

No, a "Selenologist" doesn't study Selena Gomez, but rather the physical characteristics of the moon. The word is derived from Greek mythology, where Selene was the goddess of the moon. She was the daughter of the Titans Hyperion and Theia and sister of Helios, who was the sun god.
