NASA astronauts are most typically selected from Air Force, Marine and Navy jet pilots who have advanced degrees in mathematics and sciences and then put through a series of physical, mental, and intelligence tests in order to verify their qualification for training. However, as space travel has become less hazardous the eligibility requirements have become more relaxed.
NASA typically selects new astronauts every few years, depending on their needs and projected missions. The selection process involves rigorous evaluations of candidates' qualifications, skills, and experience. The frequency of astronaut selections may vary based on upcoming missions and priorities.

I am not exactly sure about NASA and all of that. But, I know 12 men have walked on the moon.
NASA first recruited astronauts in 1959 as part of the Mercury program, with the aim of selecting and training individuals to participate in human spaceflights. The original group of astronauts, known as the "Mercury Seven," were selected based on their experience as military test pilots.

Yes Indian can get in NASA as astronauts should they meet the NASA Astronaut program requirements. NASA does accept people born outside of the United States as astronaut candidates though American citizenship is required.
The last time a human has landed on the moon was in 1971. Since no NASA astronauts have landed on anything from that day on, astronauts are mostly carried by a space craft throughout their journey.
No. NASA does. Or their respective agency.
Astronauts aboard the space shuttle were primarily NASA astronauts, astronauts from Canada, Europe and other countries.
John Glenn joined NASA in 1959 as one of the initial NASA astronauts.
