AI overview
Skylab was America's first space station, launched by NASA in 1973 and occupied by three rotating crews of astronauts for about six months while conducting hundreds of experiments, solar observations, and Earth studies. The station was built from a repurposed rocket stage and eventually fell back to Earth in 1979, ending its operational life.
