NASA and the European Space Agency are offering an odd job：they are paying a handsome amount for volunteers to lie in bed for weeks.

美國國家航太總署（NASA）及歐洲太空總署（ESA）開出一項奇特的職缺：他們將付一大筆錢徵求志願者臥床數週。

It may sound like a dream job for people who just want to lie in bed, eat, and sleep there without the need to get up and do other chores, but this is actually a new experiment. The study aims to find out if artificial gravity may help keep astronauts healthy during space missions.

這對那些每天只想躺在床上吃吃喝喝、不想整理家務的人來說，簡直是個夢幻工作，但這其實是一項嶄新的實驗。這項研究旨在了解人造重力是否有助於太空人在執行太空任務期間維持健康。

The new study conducted in Cologne, Germany will have two campaigns. The first started on March 25. The second campaign will kick off in early September. Researchers are still looking for volunteers for the second phase of the study in autumn.

這項在德國科隆進行的新研究將分為2個梯次。第1梯從3月25日開始。第2梯將於9月初展開。研究人員仍在招募第2梯秋季實驗的志願者。
