Astrophysics

Astrophysics is a branch of space science that applies the laws of physics and chemistry to seek to understand the universe and our place in it

The field explores topics such as the birth, life, and death of stars, planets, galaxies, nebulae, and other objects in the universe It has two sibling sciences, astronomy, and cosmology, though the lines between these branches can blur Astrophysics creates physical theories of small to medium-size objects and structures in the universe whereas Astronomy measures the positions, luminosities, motions, and other characteristics of celestial objects Astrophysics and the space technology industry offer some of the best career paths for physics, mathematics, engineering, and computer science graduates who are seeking a professional career, whilst still maintaining contact with advanced scientific concepts
