Donald trump expressed his big heart for Sunitha Williams..!?
Donald Trump. Everyone knows how stubborn he is. He will do what he wants. No matter how many people scold him. But trump, who is so stubborn, is only taking those who have worked for his country to heart. Trump's decision to return the losses to sunita williams, who recently returned after 9 months of being stuck in space, impressed everyone. trump expressed his big heart that he would give Sunita his own money instead of the government. It is well known that Indian-origin astronaut sunita williams and another astronaut Butch Wilmore recently returned safely to Earth from the Space Station (ISS). Originally, they went to the ISS for an 8-day trip, but due to unforeseen circumstances, they had to stay there for almost 9 months. Many people are interested in whether they will receive additional pay for this long period in space.
US President donald trump recently responded to this issue. It is noteworthy that he announced that he would pay their overtime pay himself. When reporters asked whether Sunita and Wilmore would receive additional pay, trump replied, "If I had to, I would pay them overtime pay from my own pocket. On this occasion, I would like to express my gratitude to Elon Musk for helping to bring the astronauts safely to Earth. Imagine what would have happened if he had not been there." However, in reality, it seems that astronauts who have worked in space for more than the specified time will not receive any additional payments. According to nasa experts, since astronauts are federal employees, the time they have worked in space is considered a regular visit to Earth. nasa will pay their regular salary, as well as their food and lodging expenses on the ISS.
However, in the event of such unforeseen circumstances, nasa will pay an additional $5 per day. Accordingly, Sunita-Wilmore will be paid an additional $1,430 for their 286 days in space. nasa employees receive the same salaries and allowances as US government employees. Astronauts are paid under the General Schedule GS-13 to GS-15. sunita williams - Butch Wilmore is receiving the highest grade of GS-15 grade pay. Accordingly, their annual salary last year was $1,52,000. Overall, the safe return of sunita williams - Butch Wilmore was a great relief to everyone. Trump's comments that he would pay the salary himself have made this topic even more interesting. However, trump surprised everyone by saying that although they do not receive special overtime pay according to nasa rules, they will be given appropriate recognition pay for their services.
