NASA Bed Rest Study

NASA is looking for a few good volunteers.

The requirement is, you have to be willing to lie in bed for 70 days.

That's it - just lie there.

They'll pay you about $18,000.

But you can't get up, you can read books, play on the computer, watch television, even work, but you have to stay on that bed - lying down.

The purpose of the study is to research the effects of long-term spaceflight, the kind where you're strapped in for weeks, on the human body.
