How can a humanaties student go to space?
Can a humanities student(basically, it consists of Social studies, Law, psychology, and also Maths) become an astronaut or somehow travel/go to space, like to space stations and all.... Also, consider that if I have done *psychology with Bio* too, i.e. can I go to space and observe how the human body and emotions react in space and conduct such research? If yes, then how?
Common misconceptions of astronauts?
I'm a 7th grader who hopes to pursue a career in aerospace and eventually become an astronaut. I am aware that millions of students find space cool, but very few build the profile that space agencies look for. What misconceptions do ambitious students have about becoming astronauts that can actually hurt their chances in the long run?
How can I manage my time better so I can reach my goal of having a 4.0 this year while having extracurriculars and SAT preparations?
For context, I am taking 3 APs and an astronomy community college class. I am struggling the most with astronomy, physics, and math. I am also the Junior Officer for an aerospace organization at my school called Aerotech and I am a writer and editor for a club called ARRAS (Arts and Magazine Club). In addition to this, I am currently working on a research project and thinking of making a research club for my school and dabbling in music production (hopefully I can start producing music once I can effectively manage my time). In short, I have too much on my plate.

Who am I? What am I doing here?
I am struggling with my own individual identity and I have so many career questions. I want to be an astronaut but sometimes I just want to be a policeman. No one really knows what they want to do honestly but I think I might just skip college and be an alien. #astronaut #mars #womenintech #stem #college #college-major #science #career #engineering #undecided #engineering
Educationally, what do astronauts really need to know?
Becoming an astronaut is really challenging. Sometimes it really makes me confused about what an astronaut needs to know, I know they need to be physically fit, meet the requirements for some tests, and other; but, what do they need to really study and train? #astronaut #astrophysics #astronomy #career-path
If i wanted to be an Astronaut, what Fields would be best to study for?
I have always dreamt of becoming an Astronaut and going into Space since I was a little kid. Though, I know that I could go my whole Life and not live to see the day when I am floating in a space station and spitting water orbs around. So, I want to pick a field that could easily be implemented into the field, without being so specific that I can't do anything else if the field/dream dies off. #Engineering #space #astronomy #astronaut
how do I become an astronomer?
I've always loved learning about stars, planets, black holes, gravitational waves, galaxies, any space stuff. but is this a practical career in any way? besides working for NASA, what viable paths are there for a degree in astronomy or astrophysics? is this something i should relegate simply to being a hobby? #astronomy #astrophysics #astronaut #astronautics
