He returned to Earth 240 days later aboard TM-7. Polyakov completed his second flight into space in 1994â1995, spending 437 days in space between launching on Soyuz TM-18 and landing on TM-20, setting the record for the longest time continuously spent in space by an individual in human history.
In 1963, Cooper flew on the final Mercury mission and became the last US astronaut to fly alone in space. His Faith 7 capsule circled the Earth 22 times and the mission lasted more than a day. His second trip to spaceâaboard Gemini 5 in 1965âlasted eight days and set a new space endurance record for that era.
