Trump Vows to Pay Astronauts’ Overtime from His Own Pocket:
Donald Trump has made a bold claim—he will personally cover overtime pay for astronauts on long space missions. He insists that America’s space heroes deserve better compensation for their sacrifices. His statement has sparked debate, with many questioning if this is even possible.
NASA has yet to respond, but experts argue that astronaut salaries come from government funding, not private individuals. Some critics see this as a political stunt, while others appreciate his support for space exploration. The issue arises as NASA’s budget and deep-space missions become hot topics.
With increasing interest in Mars and beyond, fair astronaut pay is now a growing concern. Many wonder if Trump will actually follow through or if this is just another bold claim. Only time will tell.
