Answer 1

you should go to the nasa website. There are many careers in the space industry: areospace, engineers-of all types, botonists who work with the plants that go into space etc.

As for leaving school in America: usually, students graduate from high school at about 18, but then there is college/university studies that can last 4-8 years depending on the type of degree.

Good luck-
