NASA is looking for volunteers willing to lie in bed for 70 days.

They'll pay you about $18,000. You can read books, play on the computer, watch television, even work -- but you have to stay in the bed, lying down.

The purpose of the study is to research the effects of long-term space-flight on the human body, where astronauts are strapped in for weeks.

NASA has even developed a shower gurney for participants to make trips to the bathroom, so they remain in the same position.

The whole study lasts about 100 days, including a recovery period.

If you're serious about applying, click here.

Sounds easy enough on the surface but could you imagine not being permitted to get out of bed at all for 3 months?

[Buick355]

FUCK that. Not only would you go crazy, the atrophy would be terrible.

Anything over 8-9 hours....count me out. After that I usually have such a bad headache that I would consider it torture.


They should find some heftys and kill two birds with one stone. Because you know there could be some extreme weight loss going on.

Nope.

It's $5,000/month.

$18,000/70 days=$257.14/day

$257.14x30(average # of days in a month)= $7,714.29/mo

of course, this is rounding to the nearast $0.01

c'mon teacher lady! lol

I spent 4 days in a hospital bed after surgery and it was pure hell. No way would I willingly subject myself to that.
