Good meme but also I’m guessing they don’t really mind lol

Bone density loss, radiation exposure, extended recovery time post microgravity.

I'm sure they mind as much as all those things matter.

Yeah I mean, they only signed up to be there for so long. And are they paid on a contract? If so they are literally just losing money.

They're employees of NASA. They receive a salary. They probably get hazard pay as a bonus, though.

Why on earth do you think it would work like that?

[–] Emerald@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

On Earth? That's not very space of you to say

Because I'm Canadian, I have never worked as an astronaut and it was a mission on a private crew capsule that I know for sure was handled with contracts.

But I wasn't sure, and I was corrected, thanks to the good people of Lemmy.
