NASA has a new job listing, and it's no joke. The US space agency is looking for a "joker" to join their (plan) mission to Mars.
A mission to Mars is no laughing matter. is known that Mars is 225 million kilometers away from Earth. A trip there would take around eight months in a small spacecraft. "When you're living with others in a confined (封闭的) space for a long period of time, such as on a mission to Mars, problems are likely (happen)" Jeffrey Johnson, a scientist at the University of Florida, (say) to the Guardian. This is probably NASA wants an astronaut with a sense of humor. "These are people that have the (able) to pull everyone together." Johnson said.
In (stress) situations, perhaps humor is a way to know we aren't alone. We can share our stress by (laugh) together. Then we can focus on our jobs instead of just worrying.
But if you're hoping that your favorite TV comedian will fly to Mars, that (possible) won't happen. "Being funny won't be enough to land somebody the job," Johnson said, "They also need to be an excellent scientist and engineer." Besides, it's required that they (be) in top physical condition.
