Honestly,I would be more willing to pay for a ride into the Mariana trench or other extremely deep ocean expeditions. I get it's about the experience but imagine seeing creatures few people (if anyone) has ever seen. I read something the other day on the lines of "10+ people have been to the moon but only 3 have been to the Mariana trench". I always dreamed of going to places here on earth hardly anyone has been to,space is great but I feel like it wouldn't be very exciting unless I get to explore and interact with the environment,maybe a lunar expedition will be available before I get too old. (Drop me a reply if you know of any jobs in remote places nobody wants to go to)

I'd rather go to space than the mariana trench just because of all the unknowns going into the deep sea would make me paranoid

  Valid point. Going into space, by comparison, is time-tested and a solved problem. You will know exactly what to expect from the start.

Not quite Marianas Trench levels of remote, but the first place that springs to mind is Antarctica; I'm not familiar with the organization of the various research stations, but there is presumably some number of support staff needed on-site to keep everything running.

  The US contractor is Raytheon and they have job postings on their company website. Here is the wiki for their operations: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raytheon_Polar_Services_Company https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raytheon_Polar_Services_Compan...

  I have looked into getting a job in Antarctica. There are indeed some support people required. If you can drive big vehicles for example, that's something they need. The Ice Cube project even needs a couple of IT people. However, jobs in Antarctica have fierce competition.

Watch the Deepsea Challenge documentary about James Cameron's descent to the bottom of the Mariana Trench. There's very little life due to a lack of energy and nutrients. https://m.imdb.com/title/tt2332883/ https://m.imdb.com/title/tt2332883/
