Gennady Padalka, who's serving a record fourth command of the orbiting outpost, logged his 804th day in Earth orbit Monday (June 29), spread over five flights. He surpassed the previous record of 803 days, 9 hours, and 39 minutes on six missions set in October 2005 by fellow cosmonaut Sergei Krikalev. "I hope this flight will take the figure to 878 days," Padalka said before his most recent launch in March. "But I am not going to stop at that — I hope to reach 1,000 days in orbit on my following flight."[/i]</BLOCKQUOTE> <center><a href="http://www.collectspace.com/news/news-063015b-cosmonaut-padalka-space-record.html" target="AirLock"><img src="http://www.collectspace.com/images/news-063015a-lg.jpg" width="400" height="265" border="0"></a></center>
