    Hi Suresh,
    *
    To become an astronaut you have to get these basic requirements-
    -Bachelor's degree from an accredited institution in engineering, biological science, physical science, or mathematics.
    - Should be a citizen of India
    -You should be at least 21 years of age by the time you join. Age relaxation is there for SC/ST candidates.
    -At least 1,000 hours pilot-in-command time in jet aircraft. Flight test experience is highly desirable.
    *
    After graduation candidates can appear for the entrance exam which is held by NASA for the recruitment of scientists, Astronauts etc.
    Hope it helps. Please feel free to revert. Click on the thumbs up or
