Astrophysics during Summer Vacations and Freshman College

[Lakshya]

Hi,

I am currently enjoying my vacations and joining my UG course late this July. The institute I am joining doesn't offer any Astronomy and Astrophysics course but I am pretty much interested in it.

So, I want some guidance and materials on how to start Astronomy and Astrophysics self study as I want to take advantage of my summer vacations and then some guidance on pursuing it on my own in the college. Any video lectures etc. would be of great use. Kindly, show me the path too on how to become an Astrophysicist: I mean what are things and the order in which they should be learnt?

Thank You. :)

I would request the experts out there to just show the slightest way, that would be much grateful. Or mods please transfer this thread to some location where this might be suitable (maybe in astrophysics section?).
