History
Mogaiology is a subset of xenology (the study of alien lifeforms) that focuses on the kingdom Mogazoa found on the planet Asteria. Mogaiology as a field began in the SD'90s with the discovery of Asteria. It is unknown who discovered and/or named many of the earlier specimens, though we can pinpoint AVEN, Baaphomett, and Roswell Pastel (acting alone or working with the PFFU) as some one of the earliest pioneers in this field. Baaphomett is credited with the creation of Xenopoda in SD2014, while AVEN helped to classify much of the phylum Oriata (particularly Nonorimata) and Pastel has done much work for mogaiology as a whole. Much of these pioneers' knowledge would've been lost without the work of those like BMPF or the Archivists, who catalogued hundreds and hundreds of mogaimons before their unfortunate end. Origenerata were not discovered until SD2018 by Fy, a member of BMPF. Their discovery linked the previously unrelated phylums of Generata and Oriata. Since the creation of mogaiology, hundreds of researchers have contributed to the field. Listing all of them would be impossible, but we have managed to gather most of the highlights.
