Abstract

A comprehensive series of papers on the Skylab program, covering integration and testing, operations support, living and working in space, Skylab technology, the role of the Kennedy Space Center in Skylab, the Earth Resources Experiment Package (EREP), the student science program, Apollo Telescope Mount experiments, corollary experiments, and life-sciences data. The topics include: Skylab contamination control; management and control of the missions; extravehicular activity; the repair of major systems elements on Skylab; crew motion disturbances; the design and operation of the Skylab attitude and pointing control system; the performance of solar shields; Comet Kohoutek observations from Skylab; the Skylab food system; and an evaluation of life in Skylab from a medical viewpoint. Individual items are announced in this issue.
