Author	Topic: Longest gap between 1st and 2nd spaceflight?
PowerCat Member Posts: 193 From: Herington, KS, USA Registered: Feb 2006	posted 07-11-2008 05:18 AM IF Anna Fisher is indeed assigned to the STS-129 mission, would this be the longest gap (24 years) between a first and second spaceflight for an ACTIVE NASA astronaut? John Glenn was a payload specialist for the STS-95 flight and was not an active astronaut at the time. His gap was 37 years! PowerCat
