Hello Adhyant,
It is of course very nice to see that the dream of your son is to become an astronaut. However, one must look at the ground realities of our dreams. Invariably no country will select nationals from other countries to become astronauts. Hence, your son cannot become astronaut in America

Choose science in 12th and score well. Also, prepare for JEE Mains also to go for engineering in aeronautics. You have to clear JEE Mains and Advanced to get into IIT or IIST Thiruvananthapuram. These are the best Institute for aeronautics.
