File this under perfect job for my lazy friends: Wired is reporting on a new NASA study that requires you to stay in bed for a very long time, and in return they will give you $17,000.

In order to study a person as if they were in space without gravity, NASA scientists use head down tilt bed rest. The 115-119 day study will follow the Bed Rest Project standard model… Participants will live in a special research unit for the entire study and be fed a carefully controlled diet.

Sweet! $17k for just lying around and free food! No word if they will let you smoke weed and pretend to be Niko Bellic all day, but I assume they totally are cool with that sort of thing at NASA.

Since your dreams are dead and you’ll never actually be an astronaut, or go to Space Camp (nerd), this is the next best thing. Apply here.
