SKYLAB was the first NASA space station, launched May 14, 1973 and visited by three crews during 1973 and 1974. It was constructed from the upper-stage booster shell of a Saturn rocket (S-IV-B). The spacecraft became famous as an on-the-job training site for space repairs by astronauts, having experienced numerous problems during its launch and in space. After the leftover Saturn rockets from Apollo were used up, there was no way for crews to reach the station. After 5 years of disuse, it was allowed to re-enter the atmosphere on July 11, 1979. Various fragments from the vehicle were recovered from Western Australia.
