The next time that Scott Kelly and Mikhail Kornienko step foot on Earth, the calendar will read March 2016. The astronaut and cosmonaut launched with cosmonaut Gennady Padalka aboard Soyuz TMA-16M to begin a historic first year-long mission on the International Space Station. Padalka will return to Earth in six months, but first he will set a new record for cumulative days in space, logging just under 900 days on five flights.
