Skylab was America's first space station and orbital science and engineering laboratory.

Jon Cowart is a great host with a millionaire mustache.

Enjoy,

I'd also recommend SkyLab: America's Space Station for those who want to learn more. I read it in high school, and it quickly became one of my favorites.

Skylab was an amazing achievement. I could go outside and watch it pass over. (I did this for the early shuttle missions too.)

 

As an Aussie, I can recommend the secret NASA report Skylab: How not to drop a large, heavy object into the Indian Ocean.:D

I heard about this on the radio, it was really interesting.

It really got me thinking about the future of space exploration,

and it was also funny cause I was re-reading Hammer Of God by Arthur C. Clarke.
