Hey. I have completed my 9th standard with 82%. I have interest in doing a job at NASA as an aerospace engineering or astronaut. I am more interested in flying to the outer space.

It is not possible to do aerospace engineering directly after 10th via diploma engineering. Aerospace engineering is a specialized field that requires a strong foundation in science and math, which are covered in 11th and 12th standard. Additionally, to pursue a bachelor's degree in aerospace engineering, you need to have completed your 12th standard with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics as compulsory subjects.

If you are interested in pursuing a career in aerospace engineering, I would recommend completing your 11th and 12th standard with PCM subjects and then pursuing a B.Tech in Aerospace Engineering from a reputed college.

Here are some government aerospace engineering colleges in India that offer diploma courses:

• Hindustan Institute of Technology and Science, Chennai
• Madras Institute of Technology, Chennai
• Indian Institute of Aeronautical Engineering, Dehradun
• VSM Aerospace, Bangalore

It is important to note that completing a diploma in aerospace engineering may limit your career opportunities, and a bachelor's degree is generally preferred by employers.
