an Engineering degree of some sort would probably be bestQuestions about becoming a spacecraft control operator or a space shuttle orbiter tech?
A degree in physics or any hard science would really help.





A pilot background would really help. I would think seriousl about doing ROTC for the Air Force, with the goal of becoming a pilot. That in itself is a major undertaking.
I agree that a BS in physics or another hard science is good. Another place that you might look at is NASA's employment listings: http://search.nasa.gov/search/search.jsp鈥?/a>
