Hello student,

Astrophysics is a field of science that studies the universe. The use of physics and chemistry rules to explain the origins of the cosmos, as well as the birth, life, and death of planets, stars, nebulae, galaxies, and other celestial objects. Astrophysics is related to cosmology and astronomy, two major areas of study that deal with space. Astrophysicists are scientists who study the cosmos and try to figure out how it works and what part humans play in it. NASA, the world's biggest space research agency, employs astrophysicists who study the universe's development and origins, as well as its workings and the presence of life on other worlds.
