Japan, Canada and Europe. NASA astronaut Mike Lopez-Alegria has flown the longest U.S. space. station mission to date, at 215 days.

Asked by Tom Davies. Nowadays all astronauts on a spacewalk will be residents of the International Space Station (ISS). To stay in orbit the ISS has to move at about 27,500 kilometres (17,000 miles) per hour so technically spacewalking astronauts are already moving at an incredible speed. Relative to the station, however, a spacewalking astronaut does not tend to move particularly fast.
