Astronomers build and deal with many instruments for observations of the above celestial bodies.  They are usually highly educated in mathematics, physics and chemistry, astrophysics and astronomy subjects.  They work in research institutes and Universities.  They teach, do consulting work and attend conferences round the globe.

Most of their work is in physics. So after the 10th take up maths, physics  subjects.  After 12th class, you have degrees like Bachelor of science, with physics main, B.S. in astronomy, B.S. in Physics etc.  You may also do M.Sc. and Ph.
