This made me interested enough to google for it, even if its just general NASA astronaut pay. Unsurprisingly looks like they are just paid on the civilian GS pay scale: https://spaceimpulse.com

And it is on the top end of it. (Wanna say highest is GS-15, but going off memory didnt bother googling it)
Im sure there's various "stipends/housing/COLA/danger pay (being in space?)" But all of it would be public knowledge somewhere on .gov sites like military pay.
Then there is the question if space has a locality adjustment for the GS schedule pay. It would be hard to justify an adjustment since living costs are no doubt covered while in space.
