Longest stay

                                            Longest stay in space

The longest duration of stay in space is achieved by a Russian astronaut. He was staying in Mir space station for 438 days. Its more than a year's time. The record is still not broken.
After the fall out of USSR, America has launched many space programs including sending astronauts to space. It includes indian origin astronauts like Sunita williams and Kalpana Chawla. But Kalpana Chawla met with an accident while returning back.
