1973 First U.S. space station launchedAmerica's first
experimental space station, Skylab, was designed for long durations.
Skylab program objectives were twofold: To prove that humans could live and work in space for extended periods, and to expand our knowledge of solar astronomy well beyond Earth-based observations. The program was successful in all respects despite early mechanical difficulties.
