The Cosmonaut who was stuck in space for 311 days, 1991

Sergei Krikalev was a Soviet cosmonaut who was stuck in space onboard a Soviet space station called "The Mir". Krikalev is a veteran cosmonaut, who spent a total of 803 days, 9 hours and 39 minutes in total in outer space.

On December 26th 1991, the Soviet Union collapsed while Krikalev was still in Space. Due to the political complications that occured during the dissolution of the USSR, Krikalev spent 311 days in space. Eventually, he returned to Earth on March 25th, 1992. Due to him being away from Earth's gravity for so long, as well as time dilation, he is 0.02 seconds older than people born at the same time as him. He is commonly referred to as "The Last Soviet Citizen". He has been retired since 2007.
