As a child we were all fascinated by the wonderful universe. Some wanted to be an astronaut…someone wanted to just go and bring moon rock to keep it with them…. Some wanted to sleep on clouds…some just love space as it is….see SPACE is all one need at times…!

Space?? Astronomy??Space just means a vast expanse which is
free or unoccupied….Astro is the word from Greek origin. Astron
means star in Greek, from it came the word astro.
Astro- The thing which is a celestial object or something in outer space etc.
Nomy- a specified area of knowledge or the laws governing it.
So, Astronomy is the science of space.

Space has lot to offer to even grownups!!YES!!! Even now we can imagine different
things about space. There is a lot to learn and more than enough to provide various theories and pass them on and on…
Now we will see various careers in this field of science.

Astronauts commander scientists
This person drives the shuttle and technically sound about the health issues of the shuttle.
Pilots are chosen for this job maximum times.
Engineers with various background subjects(aerospace,aeronautical, naval architecture,electronics,mech-anical) also have chances.
These go into space to research on various aspects. Most of the times they get to research by considering themselves as a lab rat.
Physicists, astro biologists, chemical engineers and other researchers and space scientists are taken into consideration.
