Hi, this is what I have found in Wikipedia:
Farthest humans from Earth
Apollo 13 crew; James Lovell, Fred Haise, John Swigert while passing over the far side of the moon at an altitude of 254 km (158 miles) from the lunar surface, were 400,171 km (248,655 miles) from earth. This record breaking distance was reached at 0:21 UTC on April 15, 1970.
It's always nice to help!
P.S. Here you can find more interesting records. :o)

Mike Collins the Command Module Pilot was the first person to go to the far side of the moon at 250k miles from the earth, whilst waiting for his colleague's of Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin who where making history as the first men on the Luna (Apollo 11), but this was eclipsed by Apollo 13 when it all went wrong, though the distance was the same, it was because there where three of them in the same capsule at the same time, that they where deemed to be the furthest

You would expect this answer "The furthest distance from Earth an astronaut has traveled was 401,056 km (during the Apollo 13 emergency)."
But no one has ever left the Van Allen belts and the apollo episodes of fakery are no answer.
The furthest space shuttle flight is your answer.

The record is still held by the three astronauts who were in Apollo 13 during their abortive moon mission when they veered off course by several hundred thousand miles. Jim Lovell was one of them, I'm not sure who the other two were. The record is not likely to be broken in the near future until we turn out attentions towards Mars.

Throckmorton Geoffry was taken from Earth in the year 1142 of your current calendar. After extensive examination he requested to stay with us rather than return to his dismal existence in 12th century England. He died 14 of your years later on the Gronfrix home-world which was 135 light years away from Earth, at that time.
