I have a friend that is a physics major and it has done her very well within the space sector! She works on telescopes herself, but a physics degree will have the government and agencies like NASA wanting you for internships and will hire you afterwards. I also highly suggest getting your PhD. This is the route she took after graduating from UC Santa Cruz and doing her grad school at the University of Arizona. Find a school with a great physics program and you should be able to work wherever you please. Good luck!
