Xenoarcheology

The theoretical discipline concerned with the search for, and study of, material remains and artifacts left by non-human, extraterrestrial intelligences. It’s the ultimate cold case file, applied to cosmic scales. This isn't about digging up bones, but about detecting and deciphering the "technosignatures" of a civilization—whether that’s a derelict megastructure orbiting a distant star, the ruins of an outpost on a dead moon, or the puzzling geometric patterns of a long-vanished city. It requires thinking like a species that isn’t human.
*Example: In the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey, the team investigating the Monolith on the Moon is practicing Xenoarcheology. In a real-world sense, scientists analyzing odd stellar dimption patterns (like Tabby's Star) for signs of alien megastructures are engaging in a primitive, astronomical form of it. It’s archeology without a known history or culture to guide you.*

Xenoagriculture

The practice of cultivating and farming alien or genetically modified organisms for food, materials, or ecosystem services on off-world colonies. This isn't just planting Earth seeds in Martian dirt; it's a total re-engineering of agriculture. It involves creating soil analogs from regolith, engineering plants to thrive under alien sunlight (or artificial light), using closed-loop aquaponics with local water, and potentially domesticating or hybridizing hardy native flora. The goal is to create a sustainable, in-situ food web that reduces reliance on costly Earth imports.
Example: In Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars trilogy, Xenoagriculture involves genetically engineering Earth crops to tolerate perchlorates in Martian soil, creating lichen to begin terraforming, and later developing entirely new agricultural systems in pressurized domes. It's farming where every variable—gravity, day length, soil chemistry—is a problem to be solved.
