Dear student,
In order to become an astronomer you may go for Bsc in physics after 12 th standard,then you can complete your msc in physics accordingly. Also gaining work experience is a must because you should have accurate knowledge of certain areas thus physics and mathematics play an important role since you mainly use principles from these it takes total of 10 years to be perfect in your field. You may become a researcher. Also completing PhD can be an option. Also you may go for BTech in computer science and then msc in physics or astrophysics can be done.
Hope this helps....
