SKYLAB (SPACE STATION)

On July 11, 1979, the abandoned U.S. space station Skylab made a spectacular return to Earth as it burned up in the atmosphere, showering debris over the Indian Ocean and Western Australia. The last crew left the space station in 1974. Over time, it began to deorbit, slowly sinking closer and closer to Earth. Skylab actually fell back to Earth a little sooner than NASA anticipated. Strong solar storms were blamed for this premature plunge, because solar activity had warmed up Earth's atmosphere. As pieces of Skylab broke up in the atmosphere, residents and pilots in the area saw dozens of colorful firework-like flares.

Skylab experiment S073 was designed to measure the surface brightness and polarization associated with zodiacal light, background starlight, and spacecraft corona during each of the Skylab missions using a 10-color photoelectric polarimeter. The polarimeter and a 16 mm camera were mounted in parallel on a scanning platform at the end of an extension mechanism which could be deployed up to a distance of 5.5 m beyond the spacecraft through scientific airlocks (SAL's) in either the solar or antisolar directions. This video includes Dr. Jerry Weinberg describing the experiment.

Skylab set the stage for future space stations like Mir and the ISS, and showed that people really could live in space for a while and do important scientific research.

NASA did have a plan in place to save the Skylab space station. Knowing Skylab's orbit was slowly decaying, NASA decided to use the space shuttle to boost the station into a higher, more stable orbit. Sadly, it never flew. Want more Vintage Space?

Long before the International Space Station there was Skylab, the rocket stage turned astronaut habitat. Skylab was NASA's first space station, designed to extend manned mission in Earth orbit using repurposed, leftover Apollo hardware. The three crews that lived aboard the station returned incredible science results (more on that in a later episode!) but the station was eventually abandoned in orbit.

Skylab 4 (also SL-4 and SLM-3[2]) was the third manned Skylab mission and placed the third and final crew aboard the first American space station. The mission started on November 16, 1973 with the launch of three astronauts on a Saturn IB rocket from the Kennedy Space Center, Florida and lasted 84 days, one hour and 16 minutes. A total of 6,051 astronaut-utilization hours were tallied by Skylab 4 astronauts performing scientific experiments in the areas of medical activities, solar observations, Earth resources, observation of the Comet Kohoutek and other experiments. The manned Skylab missions were officially designated Skylab 2, 3, and 4. Mis-communication about the numbering resulted in the mission emblems reading Skylab I, Skylab II, and Skylab 3 respectively. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skylab_4 S110

This historic NASA film shows the agency's highlights of 1973 including the Skylab space station and the efforts to repair it after it was damaged during launch. Also covered is the training for the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project, the Pioneer 10 spacecraft, the Mariner mission to Mercury, Viking mission, designs for a new "space shuttle". At Edwards AFB the X-24B lifting body is tested for the Space Shuttle program, and sounding rockets are used in examining the atmosphere. The Comet Kohoutek encounter is described, and the U-2 and SR-71 Blackbird / YF-12 aircraft are shown being used for civilian science research, and studies of wake turbulence are shown. Also shown is advanced flight testing at Edwards Air Force Base using remotely piloted model aircraft dropped from a B-52 mothership.

Made during the Skylab program, this film featuring astronauts Alan Bean, Owen K. Garriot and Jack R. Lousma details the repairs made to the space station after it was damaged during launch, and then describes the second manned mission to the space station known as the Skylab 3 mission. The station was damaged during launch when the micrometeoroid shield separated from the workshop and tore away, taking one of two main solar panel arrays with it and jamming the other one so that it could not deploy. This deprived Skylab of most of its electrical power, and also removed protection from intense solar heating, threatening to make it unusable. The first crew was able to save it in the first in-space major repair, by deploying a replacement heat shade and freeing the jammed solar panels. The Skylab 3 mission began July 28, 1973, with the launch of three astronauts on the Saturn IB rocket, and lasted 59 days, 11 hours and 9 minutes. A total of 1,084.7 astronaut-utilization hours were tallied by the Skylab 3 crew performing scientific experiments in the areas of medical activities, solar observations, Earth resources, and other experiments. The manned Skylab missions were officially designated Skylab 2, 3, and 4. Mis-communication about the numbering resulted in the mission emblems reading Skylab I, Skylab II, and Skylab 3 respectively.

Produced prior to the launch of Skylab, this publicity film featuring astronauts Charles "Pete" Conrad, Joseph P. Kerwin and Paul J. Weitz, gives an overview of the space station and its mission. Skylab was a space station launched and operated by NASA and was the United States' first space station. Skylab orbited the Earth from 1973 to 1979, and included a workshop, a solar observatory, and other systems. It was launched unmanned by a modified Saturn V rocket, with a weight of 169,950 pounds (77 t). Three manned missions to the station, conducted between 1973 and 1974 using the Apollo Command/Service Module (CSM) atop the smaller Saturn IB, each delivered a three-astronaut crew. On the last two manned missions, an additional Apollo / Saturn IB stood by ready to rescue the crew in orbit if it was needed. The station was damaged during launch when the micrometeoroid shield separated from the workshop and tore away, taking one of two main solar panel arrays with it and jamming the other one so that it could not deploy. This deprived Skylab of most of its electrical power, and also removed protection from intense solar heating, threatening to make it unusable. The first crew was able to save it in the first in-space major repair, by deploying a replacement heat shade and freeing the jammed solar panels. Skylab included the Apollo Telescope Mount, which was a multi-spectral solar observatory, Multiple Docking Adapter (with two docking ports), Airlock Module with EVA hatches, and the Orbital Workshop, the main habitable volume. Electrical power came from solar arrays, as well as fuel cells in the docked Apollo CSM. The rear of the station included a large waste tank, propellant tanks for maneuvering jets, and a heat radiator. Numerous scientific experiments were conducted aboard Skylab during its operational life, and crews were able to confirm the existence of coronal holes in the Sun. The Earth Resources Experiment Package (EREP) was used to view the Earth with sensors that recorded data in the visible, infrared, and microwave spectral regions. Thousands of photographs of Earth were taken, and records for human time spent in orbit were extended. Plans were made to refurbish and reuse Skylab, using the Space Shuttle to boost its orbit and repair it. However, development of the Shuttle was delayed, and Skylab reentered Earth's atmosphere and disintegrated in 1979, with debris striking portions of Western Australia. Post-Skylab NASA space laboratory projects included Spacelab, Shuttle-Mir, and Space Station Freedom (later merged into the International Space Station).

KerbalOdyssey is my attempt to revisit and expand upon space history using Kerbal Space Program, with the help of the FASA, Skylab, Soyuz/Salyut, and HexTruss mods. In Part 5, we conclude "What if we did not abandon Skylab" by linking a Russian Salyut station to it, completing the first international space station, decades early. Future expansions to the station will continue in a less lengthy montage format. Next Episode: "Can Direct Ascent work on the Moon?"

Dr. Peter David Beter - Audio Letter 48 - July 30, 1979 Text: http://www.peterdavidbeter.com/docs/all/dbal48.html MP3: http://archive.org/download/DrPeterBeter_AudioVideoLetters/drpeterbetter_audioletter_48.mp3 (1) The final chapter in The Great Skylab Cover-Up (2) The secret war of the walking dead (3) How America will relearn the fear of God In recent weeks we Americans have been reeling from one crisis to another--the gasoline crisis, the dollar crisis with gold peaking at new record levels, the fall of Nicaragua, the alleged crash to earth of SKYLAB, rumors of a new Russian military command in Cuba, controversy over the SALT II treaty, and above all the Carter crisis--with one shocking and unprecedented development after another. Meanwhile, in the background, there's a continuing drumbeat of lesser mysteries to worry about--chemical plants, refineries, and oil storage depots keep exploding and burning daily all around us; railroad tank cars keep derailing, leaking and exploding here and there--but these things have become so commonplace in the past two years that we hardly even pay attention any more. Instead we wonder, "Why did those 41 sperm whales suddenly beach themselves and die last month on the Oregon coast?" Even the marine biologists in that area leave us with the words: "It may always be a mystery." But that soon fades from our minds, and instead our attention is diverted by pathetic television re-runs of America's heyday in space a decade ago. As we watch the fuzzy picture of a spaceman as he steps gingerly onto the moon, for a moment it is once again July 20, 1969; and for a brief moment we thrill once again to those famous words of Neil Armstrong: "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind." For a moment we may forget how different it is today. Our manned Space Station SKYLAB is now officially dead according to NASA, while Russian cosmonauts are setting new records in their Salyut 6 Space Station; and, strangely, the American Space Shuttle just can't seem to get off the ground. "What's happened to NASA?", we may ask ourselves; and "If we could land men on the moon, why can't we solve any of our other problems?" But before we can think of any answers, our attention is diverted again. "Here comes another bombshell from Washington", says the TV, and we forget everything else, absorbed in the latest bewildering event in the Carter crisis. My friends, news reports about these events always make them seem as if they were separate and unrelated. As a result, they seem to make no sense; and so we do as we are intended to do, we just throw up our hands. The more evil our leaders have become, the more we have decided to just trust them; and the more secretive our Government has become, the more we have lied to ourselves that we knew what was going on. But the events I mentioned a few moments ago are not separate and unrelated. They are all parts of a bigger picture; like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, each piece makes sense when you know what the total picture is. That is why in my AUDIO LETTER series I keep focusing on the total picture--that is what I said I would do when I inaugurated the AUDIO LETTER series in June 1975. Each month I can only highlight a few of the specific events that are pieces of the puzzle, but each month I try to add more to your own understanding so that you can learn to see the truth for yourself. For long-time careful listeners of my AUDIO LETTERS, recent events ought not to be any real surprise. For example, consider the fluctuating decline of the United States dollar and the fluctuating rise of gold prices. Lately many former anti-gold figures have jumped onto the gold bandwagon, as if they had always been there. Yet they tell you nothing about why these events are now taking place. My friends, the reasons are those which I made public six years ago in my book, five years ago in Congressional testimony, and then in my AUDIO LETTERS. [...] "

Features much of the early footage of the effects of weightlessness on astronauts as they work, exercise and perform acrobatics in the large space station. Skylab was NASA’s first space station. The 77-tonne outpost was in Earth orbit from 1973 to 1979 and was visited by crews three times from 1973 to 1974.

The International Space Station (ISS) is a habitable artificial satellite in low Earth orbit. It follows the Salyut, Almaz, Skylab and Mir stations as the ninth space station to be inhabited. The ISS is a modular structure whose first component was launched in 1998. Now the largest artificial body in orbit, it can often be seen at the appropriate time with the naked eye from Earth.

The Esperance museum contains a large variety of local history, including this display on Skylab. Launched on May 14th, 1973 from Kennedy Space Centre, Florida USA, Skylab completed 34,981 orbits of the earth, before crashing back to earth in the early hours of July 13th, 1979; pieces of the space station Skylab crashed onto Esperance after the craft broke up over the Indian Ocean. The Americans were fined $400 for littering, but that fine was completely ignored until 2009, when a radio presenter collected the money and sent it to Esperance. The Museum is also proud of its collection of material from the 1800s including unique early machinery, furniture and glassware; various pieces of gear and a lifeboat from the Sanko Harvest, and a period style supermarket showing some of the old familiar brands of baby food, laundry detergent and soap.

Skylab was America's first space station, taking scientific research to new heights and proving humankind could live and work in space for long periods of time. Skylab set the stage for the work conducted today on the International Space Station, where scientists use more advanced technology, a foundation of knowledge and more time to conduct experiments in space, free from Earth's gravity. This work can be applied to benefit humankind both on Earth and in space, as we prepare to explore deeper into our solar system.

America's first experimental space station, Skylab, returned to Earth July 11, 1979, scattering debris over the Indian Ocean and Western Australia after nearly a decade of groundbreaking scientific research. 2013 marks the 40th anniversary of its launch in 1973. All footage from NASA's archive & "Space in the 70's." https://soundcloud.com/robots_in_the_sun http://www.robotsinthesun.com/

40th Anniversary of Skylab Launch: May 14, 1973 - HQ. Skylab, the nation's first space station, launched aboard a Saturn V rocket 40 years ago on May 14, 1973. The three crews that completed missions aboard the experimental facility not only set successive new records for long-duration spaceflight, but also completed about 300 experiments covering physical and biomedical science and Earth and space applications. The Skylab program also yielded knowledge that was eventually used in development of the International Space Station; just as the work being performed on the ISS now is helping NASA develop new missions that will extend our reach farther into the solar system. Bill Barry, NASA Chief Historian: "As humans move outward into deeper space exploration, we'll probably learn things that we weren't expecting to learn, just as we did in Skylab -- and now in ISS, the next things we do will be just as astounding the step from Skylab to ISS is." After the final crew left Skylab in February 1974 the empty spacecraft circled the Earth until it de-orbited in July 1979.

Skylab 40th Anniversary: LIVING OFF EARTH -- HQ. Skylab. "Living Off Earth," a special presentation at NASA Headquarters commemorated the 40th anniversary of Skylab, America's first space station. Panelists included two Skylab astronauts and Expedition 34 Commander Kevin Ford. Discussion centered on the contribution of Skylab to long duration space flight missions like those conducted aboard the International Space Station. Kevin Ford, Expedition 34 Commander: "The space station was built around what we learned from Skylab; what they put up there for us; the way the modules were sized and the way they were constructed in space and all that kind of stuff came out of what we learned from Skylab." And the lessons learned from Skylab will also help us venture farther into space on future missions of exploration, such as the recently announced initiative to send humans to study an asteroid by 2025. Owen Garriott, Ph.D., Skylab 3 Science Pilot: If we're -- NASA is allowed to continue and persist in this direction and with the proper funding to do it; then NASA will continue to be successful as they have been all the way from Skylab, Shuttle and space station as well." .

From April 16th trough May 13th CBS,NBC and ABC News evening reports of The SKYLAB 1 Rocket Launch. (NOTE:SKYLAB 1 was the launch of the laboratory itself, unmanned. SKYLAB 2 was the mission with the first crew to work in it.) For more information on the worlds very 1st space station: http://history.nasa.gov/SP-400/contents.htm

It's been about 40 years since people attempted to answer the question, "can human beings adapt to long-term life in space?" There have been huge leaps since the world's first space station, a Soviet module that hosted a crew of cosmonauts for three weeks in 1971. The U.S. space agency, NASA, says the first U.S. effort, Skylab, laid the groundwork for the International Space Station that orbits above us today. VOA's Suzanne Presto in Washington has more about what Skylab achieved before its mission ended and it plummeted to Earth in 1979.

Skylab's May 14, 1973 launch into low-Earth orbit was the nation's first foray into significant scientific research in microgravity. The three Skylab crews proved humans could live and work effectively for long durations in space. This NASA video recounts the history of the program and showcases Skylab's legacy as a major stepping stone to the successful construction and operation of the International Space Station and future long-duration human missions to asteroids, Mars and other destinations.

During a special presentation at NASA Headquarters, the agency commemorated the 40th anniversary of Skylab, America's first space station. The program featured Skylab astronauts, a current astronaut and agency managers planning future space missions. NASA launched Skylab on May 14, 1973. It was the nation's first foray into significant scientific research in microgravity. The three Skylab crews proved humans could live and work effectively for long durations in space. The knowledge gathered during Skylab helped inform development and construction of the International Space Station, just as the research and technology demonstrations being conducted aboard the ISS will help shape a new set of missions that will take Americans farther into the solar system.

SKYLAB SALUTED - MSFC. NASA Marshall. And, employees of the Marshall Space Flight Center commemorated this year's 40th anniversary of Skylab by hosting five astronauts who flew on America's first space station, Joe Kerwin, Paul Weitz, Ed Gibson, Gerald Carr and Jack Lousma shared their stories and highlights from their missions aboard Skylab. From May 1973 to February 1974, three crews occupied Skylab, a Saturn V rocket modified at Marshall. Its nine astronaut residents conducted human-adaptation and materials experiments, as well as scientific studies of the Earth, sun, and stars. The research they performed on Skylab then enabled the ground-breaking science being studied now aboard the International Space Station for the benefit of humankind.

INFO. WIKIPEDIA: Skylab was a space station launched and operated by NASA (the space agency of the United States) and was the U.S.'s first space station. Skylab orbited the Earth from 1973 to 1979, and included a workshop, a solar observatory, and other systems. It was launched unmanned by a modified Saturn V rocket, with a mass of 169,950 pounds (77 t).[1] Three manned missions to the station, conducted between 1973 and 1974 using the Apollo Command/Service Module (CSM) atop the smaller Saturn IB, each delivered a three-astronaut crew. On the last two manned missions, an additional Apollo / Saturn IB stood by ready to rescue the crew in orbit if it was needed. Skylab included the Apollo Telescope Mount, which was a multi-spectral solar observatory, Multiple Docking Adapter (with two docking ports), Airlock Module with EVA hatches, and the Orbital Workshop, the main habitable volume. Electrical power came from solar arrays, as well as fuel cells in the docked Apollo CSM. The rear of the station included a large waste tank, propellant tanks for maneuvering jets, and a heat radiator. The station was damaged during launch when the micrometeoroid shield separated from the workshop and tore away, taking one of two main solar panel arrays with it and jamming the other one so that it could not deploy. This deprived Skylab of most of its electrical power, and also removed protection from intense solar heating, threatening to make it unusable. The first crew was able to save it in the first ever in-space major repair, by deploying a replacement heat shade and freeing the jammed solar panels.

Numerous scientific experiments were conducted aboard Skylab during its operational life, and crews were able to confirm the existence of coronal holes in the Sun. The Earth Resources Experiment Package (EREP), was used to view the Earth with sensors that recorded data in the visible, infrared, and microwave spectral regions. Thousands of photographs of Earth were taken, and records for human time spent in orbit were extended. Plans were made to refurbish and reuse Skylab, using the Space Shuttle to boost its orbit and repair it. However, development of the Shuttle was delayed, and Skylab reentered Earth's atmosphere and disintegrated in 1979, with debris striking portions of Western Australia.

After Skylab's demise, the focus shifted to the reusable Spacelab module, an orbital workshop that could be deployed from the Space Shuttle and returned to Earth. The next American space station project was Space Station Freedom, which was never completed, although it eventually led to the construction of the US Orbital Segment of the International Space Station, starting in 1998. Shuttle-Mir was another project, and led to the U.S. funding Spektr, Priroda, and the Mir Docking Module in the 1990s.

TV presenters of Discover Downunder, Tim Smith and Brooke Hanson are visiting the coastal town of Esperance in Western Australia. They are visiting the Esperance Museum and checking out the Skylab, the USA's first space station which orbited the earth between 1973 to 1979. Tim and Brooke talk to Merve Andre about the re- entry of Skylab into the Earths atmosphere. The heaviest fragments of the station fell into the Southern Indian Ocean, and a large amount of Skylab debris fell in the coastal town of Esperance.
