Question
im not a citizen of america. shall i never be able to join nasa. if it is so im so disappointed.can ibecome an astronaut and engineer at the same time

Answer
Nayab
It is not for me to say never, but an American astronaut has to be a U.S. citizen.  But other countries have astronauts also.  And yes, you can be an astronaut and engineer at the same time.

Check the NASA website for astronaut details.
