Skylab Station Damage As Seen By The First Crew

A view of the Skylab space station Orbital Workshop (OWS) showing the micrometeoroid shield missing. A parasol solar shield was later deployed to shade this exposed area. This picture was taken by the first crew to arrive at Skylab after launch from their Command/Service Module during their "fly around" inspection. The Apollo Telescope Mount is in the background. The damaged and partially deployed OWS solar array system wing is at upper right. After an aluminum strapping was cut during the June 7th extravehicular activity, the solar panel fully deployed. The OWS solar panel on the opposite side was completely ripped off during the Skylab 1 launch on May 14th leaving only cables and tubing.
