Bly arrived back in New Jersey on January 25, 1890, at 3:51 p.m,[3] completing her journey 72 days, 6 hours, and 11 minutes after leaving Hoboken. At the time, Bisland was still going around the world. Like Bly, she had missed a connection and had to board a slow, old ship (the Bothnia) in the place of a fast ship (Etruria).[4] Bly's journey, at the time, was a world record, though it was bettered a few months later by George Francis Train, who completed the journey in 67 days.[5] By 1913, Andre Jaeger-Schmidt, Henry Frederick and John Henry Mears had improved on the record, the latter completing the journey in less than 36 days.[6] The current record is approximately 90 minutes, a multi-way tie held by all astronauts who have ever completely orbited the earth.[citation needed]
