What are the practical jobs that involve astrophysics? I don't care about getting rich but as long as the pay is decent enough for me to get by, I would like to have a job that I really enjoy, and at the moment I am really interested in the realm of astrophysics. Also, what level of education do I need and what is the career path that I need to take?Your help is much appreciated!|||You seem confused... Generally to be an astrophysicist you need a PhD. Maybe you are young... See this video:

Astronomers, people who work on the space program, I think that is about it.
In the near future there will more commercial work, as space becomes commercialised.
If you really love it then do it.|||Most astrophysics jobs are at either space research companies, NASA, and universities. You're not gonna starve but don't think you'll be living like Donald Trump or Bill Gates either.
Some universities have an astrophysics major while others have just a couple astrophysics courses. Either path will work. The latter would require you to take numerous complimentary courses and you might need to connect the material to astrophysics yourself. You would need a Ph.D to have any kind of success in this field
