Should I even go for an astronomy major?

I have the chance to go to UF for a major in astronomy. I feel like this major is the most attractive to me compared to my other options. Since NASA is closing and I live in Florida it worries me that I won’t be able to get a job in the 2-3 years it’ll take me to graduate. Do you guys think I should even attempt an astronomy major or should I just try for some sort of engineering major?

Edit: I should also say I know NASA isn’t closing… just a lot of people are about to lose their jobs.
