Science
Planetary scientists, astronomers, geologists and biologists study what missions find. Most paths run through a science degree and research experience.
Technicians
Hands-on builders, test technicians and launch crews. Trade schools, community college programs and military experience are common routes in.
Business & media
Sales, finance, law, marketing, policy and science communication. The space economy needs all of them.
Astronaut
