  • An astronomers salary is $101,826 but I will also have another other job a astronaut which makes $130,257. in my opinion astronomy is the best profession in the whole universe. the years I will have to spend in collage will be 8 years in collage NMSU in Las cruses!!!!!!!!!!! Steps 1 Consider the challenges first. Astronomy is a popular field and there is intense competition within it. Moreover, there are not a lot of jobs available, and many of them will be in academia. [1][2] This means that you'll need to be prepared to study very hard, to focus yourself early on the areas you're willing to work in, and to also consider work in related but not necessarily pure astronomical work. However, if you don't give it your best, you won't know your chances, so don't let the challenges stall you before you begin!challenges [1][2] Be prepared to set aside the time and resources to become as qualified an astronomer as possible. This will usually mean getting postgraduate qualifications on top of your initial degree, adding more time to your overall studies.studies 2 Do well at school if you're starting at this point. This means top grades in your final year(s) examination results. Focus in particular on mathematics, physics, and other science subjects, as these are the bedrock of astronomy. In addition, knowing foreign languages, computer science and geography can be helpful. [3] Other skills that it's important to have as an astronomer include:mathematics [3] Be analytical, logical, and have sound reasoning skills. [4]analytical [4] 3 Look for a suitable college or university course. Degrees focused only on astronomy as a first degree course are not common, so you may have to consider moving from where you live, or even applying to an overseas university. Alternatively, speak to the university about the astronomy options that it does offer and work out whether taking courses in mathematics and/or physics with some astronomy input will be sufficient to enable you to later pursue postgraduate studies in astronomy alone. Talk to the course advisers for more information.universityphysics Whatever your choice, it is important to aim for the best possible university or college that your school results enable. [5] [5] 4 Select suitable degree subjects. If you're able to get into a pure astronomy degree, then it's likely that the appropriate subjects will already have been sorted out by the course coordinators. If not, then do a mathematics or physics degree. If possible, add astronomy and/or astrophysics if offered but these can be picked up with higher degrees if need be. [6] Whatever you end up studying, do very well in it.subjectsastrophysics [6] By the time of your postgraduate work, be willing to challenge tradition and the status quo. A great astronomer (who sadly died young), Beatrice Tinsley, is known as one of the greatest creative theoreticians in astronomy and was renowned for her breadth and ability to synergize a great deal of information and see many linkages. Her thesis took 8 years before it was truly accepted because she was so forward thinking in what she discovered but she didn't let this deter her. Be strong in your convictions (and factual bases) about seeing connections and theories others can't.postgraduate The rest of the slide show will be facts about space!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And what I will be studying as an astronomer

  • Mercury
  • Slide 6
  • Venus is named after the Greek god of love. And Venus is the 2 nd planet from the sun. I think you know that so did you know that Venus is called our sister planet because of its color. Also Venus has a less likely to get hit by meteorites such as Cyrus.

  • The asteroid belt home of Cyrus the biggest asteroid in our solar system and home to the asteroid that struck Russia. Also home to meteors that are said to hit earth in 2039!!!!!!!!!

  • Neptune Neptune is the 8 th planet from the sun. it is named after the Greek god Neptune which controlled the sea. Neptune like Jupiter has one gigantic storm. Which is called Neptune's eye. It is blue because of all that hydrogyine in the air!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
