As NASA, and the world's media, tracked Skylab's progress in early July 1979, it seemed it could end up anywhere. In the early hours of the 12th of July, 1979, Skylab crashed on WA's south east coast, scattering debris across the Nullarbor and the eastern goldfields and causing a worldwide sensation. NASA officials arrived in Esperance to check out the wreckage.
Skylab was a space station launched and operated by NASA and was the United States ' first space station. Skylab orbited Earth from 1973 to 1979, and included a workshop, a solar observatory, and other systems.It was launched unmanned by a modified Saturn V rocket, with a weight of 169,950 pounds (77 t).lthough NASA worked on plans to reboost Skylab with the Space Shuttle through 1978 and the TRS was almost complete, the agency gave up in December when it became clear that the shuttle would not be ready in time; its first flight, STS-1, did not occur until April 1981.
