Donald Trump offers to pay Nasa astronauts' overtime from personal funds

US President Donald Trump has offered to pay NASA astronauts Sunita Williams and Mitch Wilmore for their overtime work in space from his personal funds. The astronauts spent 286 days in space, earning $5 per day in incidentals. Trump also thanked Elon Musk for the SpaceX Dragon Freedom spacecraft used to bring the astronauts back to Earth. NASA astronauts typically earn over $1,250 annually without extra payment for overtime, weekends, or holidays.
