Scott Kelly
Scott
Kelly
is
an
American
astronaut,
engineer,
and
retired
U.S.
Navy
Captain.
During
his
time
with
NASA,
Kelly
went
on
four
space
flights
and
commanded
the
International
Space
Station
(ISS)
on
Expeditions
26,
44,
and
45.
These
last
two
expeditions
were
commanded
by
Kelly
during
his
year-long
mission
to
ISS,
along
with
cosmonaut
Mikhail
Korniyenko.
This
mission,
developed
for
the
purpose
of
researching
longer-term
missions
to
Mars
and
beyond,
began
on
March
27,
2015,
and
ended
with
a
safe
return
to
Earth
on
March
1,
2016. During
that
time,
Kelly
took
thousands
of
photographs
of
Earth,
from
city
lights
to

formations
across
the
globe.
With
340
days
in
space,
Kelly
holds
the
record
for
consecutive
days
in
space
by
an
American
astronaut.
Part
of
what
made
Kelly
an
ideal
candidate
for
the
year
long
mission
was
the
access
of
a
"control
group":
his
twin
brother,
Mark
Kelly,
is
a
former
astronaut. The
Kelly
brothers
are
the
only
siblings
to
have
traveled
in
space.
Kelly
will
retire
from
NASA
beginning
April
1,
2016.
