Its not such a good deal for your health. After 70 days of lying down your heart will be weak as a baby.
You will have gained a lot of weight. You will have bed sores. You will lose all muscle tone.

NO THANK YOU!

Loose lips sink sigs!
70 days is 2 1/2 months or 10 weeks. SO that's equivalent to $1800 a week. If you make less then $93,600 per year ($1800 x 52 weeks) this is a good deal for you!

I'd fight Gandhi.
Can't poop? No shower? Brush my teeth? Am I sharing this bed with a woman?

Get me those things, and I want $60k. I'm sure SpaceX will pay me more. Tongue

Hospitals are crammed full of possible participants. Next time I'm in a coma, I'll be sure to sign up!  Wink

LOoks like people in the hospital would be perfect for this kind of scheme, as they are mostly on bed rest for upto 2 months.
And what better way to get paid for it.

Actually they are looking for healthy people to do it and see the effects it will cause

I would probably take this if it is offered to me. It will be a great challenge and a torture for sure of not being able to go out of the bed and be just staying in one place for the rest of the 70 days. For Science and for the money, why not? Smiley

Well fuck, I could do this in a heartbeat, it's not like im making any relevant money and going outside my room much.

yeah, but staying the the very same position whole day and night, without possibility for a simple leg stretch is insane.
i also would try to do this , but i know it would be insanely hard to do after a couple of days..

If you cant stretch its going to be unhealthy as hell.

lol they probably want to interact with your daily is the problem, you likely need to verbally communicate anything about your physiology.

No excercising means really no moving so they wouldn't lol.

I guess I can do that  Cheesy
Participants are allowed to read books, Skype, play games, as well as use their phones and computers throughout the duration of the study. Pretty much anything is fair game, so long as you remain in bed, earning a cool $1,200 per week.

This study is designed to achieve three core tasks:

1) Understanding how one’s changing physiology in space may affect the process of certain missions.
2) Understanding the impact of one’s physiological state on their ability to perform in particular tasks.
3) Preparing countermeasures to combat any impairment that these physiological conditions may impose.

You would have really big problems with muscles and you wouldn't be able to stand on your own for another at least 30 days without exercising in bed.

If I had more leave saved up I could probably sign up.  Was there an age limitation... are they taking seniors?  Maybe they'll do it again in 3 years and I might be able to participate.
