Hi Mayuri
Astrobilology can be related to Physics. Physics and relative physics is the mantra. However, you also need to be in constant touch with chemistry, astronomy, biology, molecular biology, ecology, planetary Science, geography, and geology. I suggest study physics in your B.Sc. After completing your B.Sc. You should join any reputed institute for higher studies in Astronomy and then you can specialize in Astrobilology. Please keep in mind that NASA recruits people with outstanding Academic background and some experience in the same field with some research work or so on. So your first milestone is B.Sc. Physics. All the very best.
