My oldest daughter has expressed an interest in majoring in astrophysics...and it occurred to me that perhaps there are some on the list either actively or peripherally involved in this field who might be able to provide some insight on, well, what exactly that is, career-wise. So if anyone on the list would be willing to provide some input to an aspiring astrophysicist (off-list) that would be most appreciated.
