Title
Skylab Station Viewed by Skylab 2 Command Module
Full Description
A view of the Skylab 1 space station Orbital Workshop showing the
micrometeoroid shield missing. A parasol solar shield was later
deployed to shade this exposed area. This picture was taken from the
Skylab 2 Command/Service Module during its "fly around" inspection.
The Apollo Telescope Mount is in the background. The damaged and
partially deployed OWS solar array system wing is at lower right.
After an aluminum strapping was cut during the June 7th extravehicular
activity, the solar panel fully deployed. The OWS solar panel on the
opposite side was completely ripped off during the Skylab 1 launch on
May 14th leaving only cables and tubing.
