Just takes more practice like anything else. Possibly ask for a tutor at school. With most math, once it ‘clicks’ you’re good. And the way to get it to click is a good teacher/tutor. Your school should have some type of extra support like tutors, wether a student or a teacher.

I am no rocket scientist but have a masters in engineering. I was pretty poor at math coming out of high school. Highest level math class I took in high school was trig. First math class in college was Calc 1. I struggled a lot for the first 2-3 semesters. First exam in calc 3 I got a 23%. That was when I realized I need to get serious. Started studying a lot more, and by the end of calc 3 I was acing the exams.
So while I haven’t gotten to the high level math you may need to work in Astrophysics, the point is that it wasn’t I couldn’t do it, but I just wasn’t prepared to put the work in to do it. You can do it, it’s gonna be a ton of work and suck for a while. But if you really want it, I believe you can do it.

If you have a positive attitude about it and make it a priority, I'm sure you can improve your math skills. The most important thing is genuine passion and knowing you can't fail if you don't give up.

I mean yeah, but after the first trillion years I'm sure you'd get used to it

The likely scenario in which all energy and heat in the universe dies and the endless bleak, lifeless, and light-less eternity that follows.

Horror movies never scare me because, for some reason, I always am aware the action is occurring on a screen, not in my personal space.
In am awed by the power of supernovae and supermassive black holes, but I am aware of the vastness of space and time which keeps these objects away from Earth. The vastness of space is our ally against these destructive objects. To me, there are no scary objects in space.

I always said Gattaca would have been a better movie if it had a few hallway puzzles.
The Labyrinth was probably the peak hallway puzzle movie. It was nice that Good Will Hunting gave it a nod.

Gamma ray bursts.
Neutron Stars.
Rogue Planet X.
The hercules-corona borrealis great wall (note: under current understanding of space should not exisit).
The great attractor.
​
There are more, but I think these "objects" are really interesting.
