What are ways to increase your changes of being accepted to four year colleges, despite being from a low income area?
Another question I have is how can I stand out to colleges while being from a low income area that, to me, seems to limit my opportunities? I have had personal experiences losing great opportunities due to where I am from. #college #high-school #low-income-area #workforce #steam #stem #science #technology #engineering #math #forensics #pharmaceuticals #medicine #space-exploration #space #planetary-science #astrophysics #astronomy #career #advice
Is space exploration a foreseeable sight within the near future?
Space exploration has always fascinated me, but space exploration, or at least chatter pertaining to space exploration, has dulled immeasurably in the past few years. Have we given up on manned space expeditions? #astronomy #space #nasa #physics #astrophysics
How do I become a part of the space industry?
Hi. I am a computer engineer from India. I have always wanted to make a career in astronomy/space. I am aware there are basically two paths: The phd path through which I become an astronomer but working in academia doesn't attract me so much, I am also aware that there aren't many positions that open up in academia. The other is the engineering path. Here I am confused whether to continue in computer engineering and hope to work in the space industry (I have heard data science is heavily used in astronomy. maybe I can do masters in that) or to do masters in aerospace engineering (what will be the job prospects of it?). Are there any other paths? I am not very keen on doing a MBA since I am an introvert. How is the International Space University? #space #rockets #astronomy #astrophysics #astronomers #technology #datascience #isu
Will I make a difference by working as a scientist in NASA?
In a male dominated fields such as NASA, I want to be a leader in this area. I feel working in space exploration will help solve many of the problems on earth by discovery of new resources and providing greater world security. I want to be part of the future in exploring new world possibilities. #space #NASA #engineering #technology #astronomy #science #scientist
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
What degree(s) should you get in college if you are interested in working at NASA mission control?
I'm a 9th grader that is curious about space and am interested in any job relating to mission control. #nasa #missioncontrol #space #astronomy
If I am interested in having a career related to space and ideally NASA, what would be the best approach be as a undergraduate rising junior?
I am already pursuing a degree in the health sciences, and I am interested in pursuing another degree, particularly one related to space. I would like some advice on the best way to pursue this interest. #astronomy #space #academic-advisor #college-professor
when you become an astronomer what else can you do if for example you work with NASA?
i really want to become an astronomer but i want to know what else do they do #science #astronomy #space #planetary-science
I'm interested in black holes. Is is better to go into Space Science or Planetary Science?
I always thought it would be planetary science, but now that I'm looking into them both more, I'm not sure. #astronomy #space #planetary-science
Do aliens exist?If,yes where?Or the technology advances too much and so that we can time travel and come in past to study and observe ourself?
i ama young boy who wants to study space engineering and travel in search of life. #aerospace-engineering #space #astrobiology
