$60,000 for the entire 378-day mission.

Affidavit,

I suppose it's not too bad. People typically use their wage as they get it, paying for rent/food/utilities. Many of these costs would be covered by the programme, which means they can potentially come out of it a year later with the full 60k.

Gamers_Mate,

The current minimum wage in australia is $23.23 when I converted it to USD I got $15.48. It is crazy that they are getting paid less than that for something you would expect to be a high paying job.

hydro033,

They'd probably be research techs otherwise making way less tbh

dipbeneaththelasers,

NASA is paying each participant $10 per hour for all waking hours, the Houston Chronicle reports, which adds up to just over $60,000 for the entire 378-day mission.
