Understanding and control of the spin relaxation time T1 is a key challenge for spin qubits, setting the fundamental upper limit to the qubit coherence and readout fidelity. We establish the prediction of hyperfine-phonon spin relaxation experimentally, by measuring T1 over an unprecedented range of magnetic fields and report a maximum T1=57±15 s at the lowest fields, setting a new record for the spin lifetime in a nanostructure.
