Title: Rendezvous and Fly Around Inspection of Skylab I Orbital Space Station
Description:
This view of the Skylab Orbital Space Station was taken from the Skylab 2
Command/Service Module during it's initial fly around inspection. The
cables and tubing seen on top of the Orbital Space Station are all that
remain of a solar panel (one of two) that was completely ripped off during
launch - the other, can be seen partially deployed on the other side. At
the far end of the vehicle is the Apollo Telescope Mount with extended
solar panels.
