M.Sc. in Astrophysics will be better option to pursue. As you have already done Physics, so you will be eligible for it. Diploma will not be much helpful. Regular B.Sc. will have more benefits. -
Clearly, you are eligible to pursue B.Sc, as you have the desired qualification. Since you are already a graduate in Bachelors of Science with specialization in Physics and astrophysics is the application of physics to understand astronomy. The scope of this course is really good. Also, it will be informative for you to know that there is a severe shortage of serious research astronomers in the country. However, there are also a limited number of institutions which actually do research in astronomy.
Also, just make sure if you pursue this course, your scores are well. After which you have a lot of scope to try as a researcher in NASA .
