From 2015 to 2016, Scott spent 340 days at the International Space Station. But Mark still stayed on the earth.

When Scott came back from space, he changed a lot. He was 5 cm taller than before. His eyesight became worse. He found that he couldn't see things clearly. Another change was that he couldn't move his legs easily just like before. Scientists also found that after Scott came back to the earth, it took him much longer to understand things. As for Mark, he could do so as well as before.Scientists say when people grow old, their telomeres（染色体端粒）will get shorter. Mark's telomeres kept getting shorter.
