American Astronaut Scott Kelly Holds the Record for the most time spent in Space Friday Oct 16,2015

 

NASA's American Astronaut Scott Kelly broke the  US record for the most time spent in Space with 383 Days

 

Scott Kelly is more than halfway through a yearlong mission at the International Space Station and will eventually set a record for the longest single U.S. space mission.

Scott Kelly tweeted back to Earth that he hopes that his eventual 500 plus days in orbit will be exceeded by someone visiting Mars. He tweeted that his day began with a strikingly beautiful view of the Himalayas and vowed to visit them.

Scott Kelly and his ex-astronaut twin Mark, on the ground, are part of an experiment on the long-term effects of space.

Note
Russia’s Gennady Padalka holds the record with 879 days in space.
