Skylab was launched in 1973 and disintegrated when it reentered the Earth's atmosphere in 1979. Some debris landed southeast of Perth, Western Australia, and was found between Esperance and Rawlinna, from 31° to 34°S and 122° to 126°E. Residents and an airline pilot saw dozens of colorful fireworks-like flares as large pieces broke up in the atmosphere.

A full-size training mock-up once used for astronaut training is located at the Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center visitor's center in Houston, Texas. Another full-size training mock-up at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama but is not on display. This Skylab engineering mock-up was being considered for restoration and display.
