Career Options in Astronomy And Astrophysics

Do you feel awestruck by the sheer vastness of our universe? Do movies like Star Trek or Interstellar mesmerize you? If you aspire to study the planets, the solar system, black holes, and other aspects of the universe, you could consider careers in space science and technology; especially careers in astronomy and astrophysics.

ASTRONOMY: Astronomy is the scientific study of celestial objects (stars, planets, comets, and galaxies). Phenomena that originate outside the Earth’s atmosphere (such as the cosmic background radiation)

ASTROPHYSICS: Astrophysics is a branch of astronomy. The field of astrophysics applies the laws of physics and chemistry. Explain the birth, life, and death of stars, planets, galaxies, nebulae and other objects in the universe.

ASTRONOMY and ASTROPHYSICS:
Astronomy is the overall subject; Astrophysics comes under Astronomy. Astronomy measures positions, luminosities, motions and other characteristics of the celestial objects. In contrast, astrophysics creates physical theories of small to medium-size structures in the universe.

Career options in Astronomy and Astrophysics:

Thanks for uploading. I got the chance to see a rocket launch in 2018. Incredible experience. I shared a pretty fun montage of the journey to my channel.
