Fact About the Day:
On July 11, 1979, pieces of Skylab, America's first space station, rained down on Australia and the Indian Ocean. The space station was originally launched in 1973, and housed three separate three man crews for long periods of time. Unfortunately, the space stations orbit began to deteriorate five years after the last Skylab mission. It came back to earth in a spectacular display of burning debris having broken up in the atmosphere. Fortunately, no one was injured.
