Astrophysics Jobs
Astrophysics is the branch of science that studies the universe and its components and the physical phenomena that occur in it. An Astrophysicist researches the origin and evolution of stars, planets, galaxies, and other astronomical objects through their electromagnetic radiation, gravitational fields and their interactions with one another. They study distant celestial objects as well as the observable universe. Astrophysicists use a variety of analytical tools to study complex systems ranging from electricity and magnetism to relativity and quantum mechanics.
Astrophysics applies physics processes to explain the universe's behavior and function. This includes mathematical modeling, numerical simulations, observing data analysis, and laboratory investigations, combining theoretical models and observational data to develop a better understanding of physical systems. Today with powerful instruments like X-ray telescopes, space probes and Earth-bound radio antennas, Astrophysics has become even more dynamic with specialized research projects that can be used for a variety of purposes.
Here’s some projects that our expert Astrophysicist made real:
- Investigated galaxy formation and studied stellar evolution in interstellar environments.
- Analyzed planetary orbits to understand motion in the solar system more accurately.
- Tree dimensional simulations computing the effects of stellar winds on clusters of stars.
- Determined invisible mass in galaxies through gravitational lensing experiments.
- Implemented cutting edge data logging methods for astronomical observations.
Astrophysics is a multifaceted field that takes understanding physics processes to another level by applying them to outer space research projects. Our expertise Astrophysicists are specialists in developing new ways to explore the universe while also providing unique analysis on past analogues.

Who Let the Gas Out? NASA Tank Venting Challenge Create a concept for tank venting in micro-gravity IMPORTANT: Participants need to fill out the Challenge Registration form before submitting the solution. Please refer to the Guidelines tab for more information. As space travel extends to greater duration and distance, missions may require a propellant refill in space. To achieve this, spacecraft may require larger tanks and efficient refueling along with tanks that have the capability of isolating propellant from ullage fluid (a gas and vapor mixture) during a vent. The goal of this Challenge is to develop a novel solution for the venting of ullage contents from a partially full propellant tank, in microgravity, with minimal loss of propellant. This ullage venting solution w...
Challenge Overview and Objective Innovative solutions are urgently needed to detect, characterize, track, or remediate small debris to ensure the safety and sustainability of space operations. YOU NEED TO FILL OUT THE REGISTRATION FORM AND BE REGISTERED ON THE FREELANCER.COM PLATFORM BEFORE SUBMITTING THE SOLUTION This competition invites creative minds from around the world to contribute groundbreaking concepts that address the critical issue of small debris in Earth's low-earth orbit (LEO) environment. Low-Earth orbit (often known as LEO) encompasses Earth-centered orbits with an altitude of 2,000 km or less. Low-Earth orbit is considered the area in Earth orbit near enough to Earth for convenient transportation, communication, observation and resupply. This is the area wher...
