Hi

As you asked It is excellent that you need to turn out to be astronaut within the future. But permit me

let you know that it's miles a very lengthy method and could require a number of persistence before you

may definitely grow to be astronaut and fly to the International Space Station similar to Sunita Williams

and made the u . S . A . proud.

At the instant NASA is the only hope of candidates from India who desires to become astronauts. It is

due to the fact ISRO, our own flagship space employer do no longer have the era to ship guy into space.

Although it is believed that ISRO is planning to send man to space through the give up of this decade. At

the moment it's far busy with other projects like the Chandrayan and Mars Mission which became

recently introduced by using the Prime Minister on 15th August for the duration of his speech at Red

Fort.

Since ISRO is out of the photo for numerous years, you'll in reality ought to depend on NASA to fly into

space. However who knows by the point you grow to be eligible to fly into space, ISRO may certainly be

recruiting astronauts. It is a possibility.

Now what you may do is observe to NASA for the activity of venture expert. The venture expert also gets

to head into space. Unfortunately people from outside United States are not allowed to end up pilot of

the gap shuttle. Anyway I don't think that might matter much so long as you get to go into space.

Here is what you are required to do.

1. Complete 12th fashionable with PCM as the subjects.

2. You want to complete commencement in Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry, biology or get the B.Tech

diploma in Aerospace.

3. After finishing Aerospace Engineering, seem for the GATE examination and apply for the M.Tech

course.

4. The post graduation course must be followed by using the PhD.

5. After completing PhD you need as a minimum 3 years of associated and gradually experience.

6. After getting the specified experience, appear within the NASA examination for recruitment of

scientists and astronauts.

7. If you cleared the exam, NASA would give you schooling to emerge as astronaut.

You could go through several physical and intellectual assessments to decide whether you could cope

with the challenges of the space travel. Some of the checks you will undergo encompass Aircraft

weightless education lessons, Shuttle Mission Simulator etc.

If passed these exams with flying colors, you will turn out to be astronaut and get a threat to fly into

area.

Hope helpful.

Hi dear!! Hope you are doing well!! It's great to see that you want to become an astronaut in future which is a very good dream upon which you should work with full dedication. For being an astronaut , you need to have a degree and knowledge of this field which you can get if you pursue a course of aeronautical studies. But still, even after taking CSE, you can still learn about the aeronautical field and can be an astronaut.

Hi

For becoming an Astronaut, it takes a lot of efforts, yes you may become an Astronaut after pursuing CSE, but that won't be enough. You need to have at least the given requirements:

  • Masters or higher qualification in any STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics ) field
  • Experience of 2 or more years in Flying as a pilot
  • Having good Physical standards
  • Have good Computational and Mathematical skills

Note: In the present time, ISRO (India) does not have any Manned mission in Space so there are no Professional astronauts in India, but ISRO has proposed such missions ("Gaganyaan") in the upcoming years.

If you want to become an Astronaut in present you must fulfill the eligibility and  you may see Research Organizations in abroad like NASA or SpaceX.
