Skylab was an 100-ton space research laboratory launched by the N.A.S.A on May 14, 1973. It was intented to be a large floating workshop to test man's capability of sustaining prolonged period of weightlessness in the space. Three teams of astronauts were sent up in Appolo spacecraft to work in the laboratory on importent experiments. The skylab dropped out of the orbit and fell like a meteor into the Indian Ocean near Australia on July 11, 1979.
