NASA Wants People to Live Like They’re on Mars

Could you do it?

They posted the job on Friday, and they’re accepting applications until September 17th. But, they’re not just taking anyone. Ihe ideal candidate would be 30 to 55, and have a master’s degree in a stem field, like engineering or math. But, they’ll also accept applications from people with a bachelor’s degree and some relevant experience. The four who get chosen will live in a 1,700-square-foot enclosed space with no windows for a year. They’ll only eat astronaut food, and have limited contact with friends and family online. It’s not clear how much it pays, but you can head to NASA’s website if you want to apply.
