The Skylab 4 'astronaut strike' that never happened, what really went wrong on America’s first space station
In December 1973, headlines claimed three astronauts had gone on strike aboard Skylab, leaving NASA powerless 270 miles below.

Skylab was basically a flying warehouse in orbit, and that huge open volume let astronauts test how bodies move when walls aren’t in the way. It’s a reminder that future stations might feel less like tubes and more like gyms in space. Follow @spaceeves #Skylab #ISS #SpaceHistory #SpaceEve | SpaceEve
