Astro Brief: Unlikely Astronomers

NASA/Michael DeMocker

How can you contribute professionally to astronomy?


Do you lack a degree in astronomy, but are interested in helping with astronomical problems? NASA hires many different professionals to aid and collaborate in various ways while many research astronomers find homes at universities.

Join us this week as Mike shares some of the professions that work closely with astronomers.

Astro Brief is a collaboration between KSMU, the Missouri Space Grant, and MSU's Department of Physics, Astronomy and Materials Science. Hosted by Dr. Mike Reed, Astro Brief focuses on astronomical events, the field of astronomy, and astronomy-related guests. It airs Thursdays at 9:45 am on KSMU.

Distinguished Professor of the Missouri State University Department of Physics, Astronomy and Materials Science.
