Russian Cosmonaut Oleg Kononenko Sets New Space Endurance Record with 879 Days in Orbit

Russian cosmonaut Oleg Kononenko has set a new time travel record by spending 879 days in orbit, surpassing the previous record held by his colleague Gennady Padalka. Due to the effects of time dilation, Kononenko has traveled slightly farther into the future than anyone else. Maintaining a rigorous exercise routine to counteract the effects of microgravity, Kononenko is on track to reach the 1,000-day mark in space and is scheduled to return to Earth in September. Despite the health risks of long-term weightlessness, technology keeps him connected to loved ones. The time dilation effect, as predicted by Einstein's theories, causes astronauts to age slightly more slowly than people on Earth, with Kononenko and Padalka having traveled 1/44th of a second into the future compared to those on the ground.
