Who succeeded Hermaszewski as the next Polish cosmonaut in space?
No one, he was the only Polish cosmonaut
Andrzej Zawada
Jerzy Główczewski
Juliusz Bursche
Answer
Hermaszewski holds the unique distinction of being the sole Polish cosmonaut to travel to space. Poland has not sent any other cosmonauts into orbit since Hermaszewski's mission in 1978, despite initial plans for a second Polish cosmonaut to participate in the Intercosmos program. This stands in contrast to other countries that have sent multiple cosmonauts into space.
