      If you ask him, he will say “not long enough”. All astronauts want to stay as long as possible. It is definitely a fun job.

      He has been there since December 2015 and will stay until June 2016.

      Astronauts usually stay and work in the ISS for 6 months and then switch with the upcoming astronauts.
