Well, technically, Queens is on Long Island. The New York City boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens (which are Kings County and Queens County in state government) occupy the western end of Long Island. The remaining eastern portion of the island is made up of Nassau and Suffolk Counties, which are part of New York State, but not part of New York City.
But usually when New Yorkers say "Long Island" they mean only the portion that is NOT part of New York City. In other words, "Long Island" usually means "Nassau and Suffolk" specifically. And I assume that is what you meant, too.
To answer your question: you would take the LIRR (Long Island Railroad) and then transfer to the New York City subway system.
A more useful answer cannot be given without knowing which town or city on Long Island you're coming from. Without knowing where on Long Island you're coming from, I can't say which branch of the LIRR you have to take, what stop to get off at, and which subway lines to transfer to.
Keep in mind that Long Island is 1,400 square miles. Excluding the portion that is part of New York City (Brooklyn and Queens) it's still over 1,100 square miles. There is no way to give useful directions from "somewhere on Long Island" to Astoria, Queens.

Why is Long Island was not included as a borough of New York?
Technically, Queens is on long island and Queens is a borough, but when you get to a certain point of Long Island, it becomes a different county and it is no longer Queens county. Also, at that point, only the Long Island Rail Road goes out to the far ends of Long Island, the usual trains stop at a certain point. Who knows, maybe it's just my Queens bias kicking in :)

Are Queens and Brooklyn on Long Island?
Yes, the New York City boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens are both on Long Island. Brooklyn and Queens (which are also Kings County and Queens County, respectively) occupy the western end of Long Island. Kings County (aka the borough of Brooklyn) is the westernmost county on Long Island, and Queens County (aka the borough of Queens) is the second-westernmost. Queens lies on top of and somewhat east of Brooklyn, as if it just tried to sit down on Brooklyn too hard, and is now slipping off the right side of it. The remaining, eastern portion of Long Island is occupied by Nassau and Suffolk Counties, which are part of New York State, but not part of New York City as Brooklyn and Queens are. Suffolk County is the easternmost county on Long Island, and at 912 square miles, it is also the largest, taking up 65% of Long Island's total land area (which is 1401 square miles).
