I live in Perth, Australia, and i want to be an astronaut. How do I do this? I'm currently in Year Ten, and I don't know if there are any universities around with good astronomy programs or not.
You need to be good at your studies that's for sure.In particular at mathematics.When you graduate from your school you can study aerospace engineering at engineering college.A lot of engineering schools offer it in Australia.That's one of the ways.Or you can study physics and follow up with a post graduate degree with specialization in Astronomy.It is important to understand that only astronomers don't become astronauts.People from military,\nbiologists,\nchemists,\nphysicists,\nengineers,\nmeteorologists,\ngeologists\n all have been to space.The environment in space is particularly suitable for ceratin experiments and is important to many branches of science.\nSo studying astronomy is one of the ways and not the only way.
The OWL at Purdue is one of the best ones, really.\nowl.english.purdue.edu\n\nAlso, why don't you sign up for a writing course at your university?
