Thank you Maj Marty Hogan for your Post regarding Gennady Padalka, Russian Astronaut... I don't know how He managed to spend 879 days in space, but it must have had a negative impact on his human physiology! In any case, He accomplished what no other human has done and to his credit was an astounding human accomplishment! Great Post, Marty!

Would be interesting to hear what changes happened to him for spending that much time aloft.
