I Applied to Be a NASA Astronaut. You Can Too
Recently, I applied to become an astronaut. I would like to be able to say that there is a non-zero chance I will be accepted, but sub-zero is more like it. Not a whole lot of people who can actually recall Sputnik—which, for the record, was launched on Oct. 4, 1957—quite make the age cut to climb on top of a rocket.

NASA is hiring; on March 5 it opened its doors to a new class of 12 or so astronauts and wil...

Institute for Fiscal Studies - Average pay in the public and private sectors has performed very differently since the election in 2019. These recent trends come on top of poor earnings performance in both sectors since 2007. Within the public sector, some high-profile professions (nurses, and particularly teachers and hospital doctors) have seen considerably worse pay growth than the average public sector worker. Looking at trends in the English NHS, nurses saw a significant reduction in real pay over the 2010s (falling 7% between 2010 and 2019) and only a modest recovery since.
