America's first experimental space
station. Designed for long duration mission, Skylab
program objectives were twofold: To prove that humans
could live and work in space for extended periods, and
to expand our knowledge of solar astronomy well beyond
Earth-based observations. Successful in all respects
despite early mechanical difficulties, three three-man
crews occupied the Skylab workshop for a total of 171
days, 13 hours. It was the site of nearly 300 scientific
and technical experiments: medical experiments on
humans' adaptability to zero gravity, solar
observations, and detailed Earth resources experiments.
The empty Skylab spacecraft returned to Earth July 11,
1979 scattering debris over the Indian Ocean and the
sparsely settled region of Western Australia.
