Space-Time: Scott Kelly Breaks Time-Aloft Record For US Astronauts (usatoday.com)
NASA astronaut -- and Commander of the International Space Station -- Scott Kelly on Friday broke the record for time in space -- for U.S. astronauts, at least; the overall longest flight of 437.7 days belongs to Valeri Polyakov, and the Washington Post points out that Russia’s Gennady Padalka has spent a total of 879 days aloft. Kelly brings a unique asset to the long-term study of health for spacefarers, because his twin brother Mark, here on Earth, serves as close to a perfect control subject as NASA could hope to have. Kelly is a prolific tweeter about the progress of his year-long mission aboard the ISS; on the occasion of beating the time-aloft record, his modest acknowledgement read only, "Records are meant to be broken. Look fwd to one of my colleagues surpassing my end 500+ days on our #JourneyToMars!"
Thank you for every barrier penetrated, every obstacle overcome, and every sacrifice made.

The US space program is a complete bore. ISS is a waste of money. Scott Kelly is a shill for Obama and a big part of the problem.
So I take it that Pedro Duquet's record for Longest Time in Space While Being Spanish is still unbroken?
I'm looking forward to the even more important "longest time in space while being female" award.
If video games influenced behavior the Pac Man generation would be eating pills and running away from their problems.
This is the daily "We should be going to Mars" slashdot story.
You just need to stop at the Moon to pick up some fuel for the final boost, stop in the Asteroid Belt to snag a block of ice, then just turn on your ion engine to travel to Mars and just parachute to the surface so you can find a convenient cave which can be finished inside and used to grow potatoes. Nothing to it as long as you just ignore what you should have learned in Physics 101.
If he thinks journey to Mars is remotely doable. Space sickness is what he 'as.
This space stuff in 2015 looks like Civil War reenactments or live-action role playing. It has the same impact on our lives. Great theater, gets some people worked up, the rest of us really care very little.
I agree. Research into Gender-Reassignment Surgery in Space (GRSS) should significantly boost human technology. This requires dedication of transgender astronauts of all possible sexes, who must tolerate confinement in a space station while physically being a particular incorrect sex, before GRSS technology matures.
What's that called, the "Vaggy" or similar?

Let's work on getting there in a week. In the meantime, you know, there's the moon to experiment with...
“He’s not deformed, he’s just drunk!”
Well, Audrey Meadows has been to the moon several times...
“He’s not deformed, he’s just drunk!”
Looks like the submitter was 442 days late in stating this record being broken.
in this age of glottalization and world wide web(heard of that?),only record that counts is the world record.
btw is this really an american record if he is carried and kept there by russians?
i would be voted down by people who can't face facts.
Is he paid hourly or just salary?
He should get paid more than someone who just does "my job 5 days a week"
and thats a LOT of money
troll bs. The 'moon walk' was a Fraud, the 'astronauts' are paid actor Frauds. They never 'went to the moon', the 'shuttle' explosion was also staged, there is no 'space station' with people in it. They use the hundreds of billions from fake 'space' bs for weapons and they're still doing it now. The so called 'astronauts' are lying fraud actors who are part of the scheme. Same with fake 'astro nots' from other counries. Most all countries now run by the jews. They never went to the moon, the fraud was filmed in a jew hollywood studio. Most websites on it are to waste time, this video by far best proves the fraud, also fake 'astronauts' lying, one punches the video maker in the face. - full version one hour - jew 'nasa' fraud - apollozero.com
Until you know who the conspiracy is you know nothing. First, there was No so-called 'holocaust'. Only 280k people died in the Labor camps and that was from natural causes, while tens of millions of nordic whites killed each other in the fake 'war' based on jew LIES. search 'judea declares war on germany'. Their fraud 'war two' jews took over europe using 'usa' scum dupe 'troops' and 'tax' dupes who paid for it all, killing off millions of white Germans who tried to stop the jews. - https://archive.org/details/TheLeuchterReport
Ingore comment below for 'more reading' bs, the psy ops dump on long slobbering papers to keep dupes wasting time. Just see Leuchter report, don't need to read all just see top half. There are many sites that debunk the fraud but most of them wiped off the web this year now their big kill of us is coming, most pages left now put up by jews who either tie 'jeesus' religion garbage to distract from the fact they are a race, or do 'aliens' or 'khazars' or other bs, or the 'academia' type long slobber so idiots sit casually 'reading' and don't take action. Don't waste time. There is no time.
Look at 'washington' face on the dollar, jew, bogus 'founders' didn’t 'found' anything, all jew cons. The so-called 'constitution' is a fraud. They made up the bogus 'government' and 'states' to 'tax' dupes to get themselves trillions in weapons. http://jim.com/treason.htm copy page, ignore rest of site, sites bait with L. Spooner then use other bs to distract from the fact that we are free. All 'law' is based on contract between men. There is no other law. Any other claim of 'law' is but cons making up fraud papers to dictate 'laws' to 'tax' and kill you. It is a fact you are free. The 'civil war' was also a jew fraud. It was JEWS 'who brought the slaves to america' -Walter White, archive.org - ignore dbs notes. The jews got the idiot scum northerners to kill the southerners by saying it was to 'stop slavery' when it was actually so jews could stop the south from seceding from their bogus jew 'government'. The kkk was started to stop blacks from robbing and raping white families and after things settled down the kkk wasn't even around anymore. Then decades later the JEWS made up a bogus 'kkk' also do fake 'nazi' bs so jews do false flags and control every side. The jews made up the 'civil rights' bs to hide behind bogus 'minorities' label and make nordic whites pay for jews, blacks and mass immigrant scum while the jews control everyone. The jews made up the anti 'racist' and 'hate speech' bs to stop people from exposing the jews. See jew run wikipedia page 'hate speech' all the bogus 'laws', in some countries if you deny the jew fraud 'holocaust' you actually go to JAIL and idiots put up with it even though we way outnumber the lying scheming thieving jews.
The jews are a RACE, most 'whites' in fraud 'government', liar 'media' liar 'scientists' vaccine pushing 'dokters' fraud 'lawyers' 'judges' are Not nordic whites they are 'white' skin ashkenazi JEW race. They made up the 'mass media', used 'tv', the made up the 'public skools' so idiots allowed their children to be brainwashed by masses of lies put out by the jews. All the big corporations are jews, millions of jew trolls on the web financed by their bogus 'govt' and 'holocaust' f
If you really knew your Physics 101, you'd include the stop at Venus to pick up some atmosphere.
The 'asrto Nots' are not just 'shills' they are Frauds, there was no 'moon walk', there is no 'space station' the 'shuttle explosion' was staged, the so called 'media', 'govt' is a fraud and has been from the start. The 'astronot Frauds' post above contains numerous proofs and links. The jews are the 'govt', there was no 'holocaust', the 'moon walk' bs was filmed in a jew hollywood studio. - astronot frauds post above
Scott Kelly on Friday
Did he change his name in hope of getting a talk show when he comes back down?
systemd is Roko's Basilisk.
Longest time is space while being black and female? What about midgets, or jews? They have records as well right. How about a black female midget jew, who is also president of something.
If information wants to be free, why does my internet connection cost so much?
na, do a flyby of the sun to get some hydrogen that you can then combine with mars atmosphere to make rocket fuel. And there is probably lots of He3 in the sun as well. We all know we need to be mining He3. Cus, reasons.
