Astronaut: Say, Scot, how much did you say Skylab cost? Astronaut: 2.5 billion dollars. Astronaut: Okay, lemme see... in order to justify that expense, the nine astronauts have to do 2.5 billion dollars of research over a total of 140 Skylab days... that breaks down to 18 million dollars a day, or 6 million per astronaut per day! Astronaut: No sweat. I already did 2.75 million this morning... Astronaut: Hey! You did? Astronaut: Sure! I got up early.
