Ever thought of a career in astronomy? In this money-go-round world, how many of us really follow our dreams and make a career out of our liking and not for the sake of money. What do you think about a career in Astronomy? I think its pretty interesting and adventurous for the intellectual kind of people. Those who choose a career in astronomy are have a very unique experience in life.

Wish I were an astronomer or an astronaut. Wish I had job engaged with stars, planets, universe, big bang, black hole so on and so forth. It could have been an amazing job. But in life you often lose running after your dream so did I. I had this aim to engage myself in this kinda job, but could't. I get excited thinkin the life with astronomy and astrophysics.

I have not made astronomy my career, but I am always so fascinated by the subject, the planets in the universe. Very interesting to know that there are many many planets revolving around. It is so amazing that there are new discoveries coming up now and then.

I think it's great to follow your dreams! I think it's better to chase your dreams and fail than to never even go after your dreams at all! I wish you a lot of success going after your dreams! As for astronomy, well, I took an astronomy course in college and ended up failing the class! So I don't think astronomy is for me... But it's great that it's something you want to do!
