I'm just starting high school and want to work for NASA in their Mars missions. I have always been intersted in space,and am always out using my telescope. I dont really want to go to space,but want to work on a mission. Like i said im only a kid and have no clue what degrees i should persue. Maybe something in architecture? Fell free to ask me any questions on this page while its up. Thanks in advance.

Get degrees in engineering, space sciences, robotics, design, maybe microbiology and xenobiology.
That is a lot of school but in the end you'll have the knowledge that will be required for a job at NASA or any Space Agency that is around when you graduate.
Follow your dream and Good Luck to you young man.

Most people who work on such missions are engineers. Get an engineering degree. Mechanical engineering or electrical engineering or aerospace engineering.
