Ballistics is the science that deals with motion, more specifically the motion of projectiles. I study forensic science and we study firearm ballistics, so the projectiles I deal with are bullets.

The UN-guided, UN-powered projectile are called "Ballistics". Projectile is a body which covers both vertical and horizontal distance because of the gravitational acceleration.

Ballistics (gr. ba'llein, "throw") is the science that deals with the motion, behavior, and effects of projectiles, especially bullets, gravity bombs, rockets, or the like; the science or art of designing and hurling projectiles so as to achieve a desired performance.

It could be an expert, or a report written by an expert, it is a study of projectile(Usually spent Bullet).
This is how police match the bullet taken from a victim to a gun shot, to a gun that may have been recovered.

it's anything relating to the motion of projectiles (rockets, throwing balls, etc..)
Note to previous answerer: That's an overgeneralized assumption. Some people know stuff without looking, and are just putting sources toward more detailed information.

It's where Christians go when you mention evolution...
No, seriously, it's a. The study of the dynamics of projectiles.
b. The study of the flight characteristics of projectiles.

Try Wikipedia. I mean, whoever has the best answer here is just going to have an answer that is copied and pasted directly from there, so why not do the research yourself?
