The basics of astronomy are not difficult. There are lots of easy things to learn. So it is a subject that you can start to learn quite easy. There are very complicated parts, but it isn't necessary to know all of them to have a reasonable knowledge of astronomy. You can learn the more complicated things later if you have the interest.

∙ 12y agoIf you mean "are there a lot of jobs for astronomers", the answer is no, very definitely not.
If you mean "are there a lot of astronomers competing for the few jobs there are", then yes, very much so.
Astronomy is an exceptionally poor career choice based simply on the "will I be able to get a job and make decent money" criterion. You should really only do it if you love it so much you can't imagine doing anything else.
The upside is that course of study for astronomy involves a lot of physics, and the job prospects are rather better for physicists, since that's a field that has real-world applications outside of academia.

∙ 11y agoAs long as you're OK with math, being an astrophysicist is fun! But there's a LOT of math. Also, from the point of view of being a scientist, an astrophysicist is one of the few disciplines in which you can't do your own experiments; you have to observe stuff happening great distances away and very long ago.
