Skylab, the first United States space station, weighed approximately 77 metric tons (170,000 pounds) when fully equipped and fueled for launch.
Skylab orbited the Earth for approximately six years and operated from May 1973 to July 1979. Its orbit decayed over time, leading to an uncontrolled re-entry into the Earth's atmosphere in 1979.
The date the Skylab launched and entered Earth's orbit was the 14 May 1973.
All total Theres been three Mir, Skylab and the ISS. Mir and Skylab burned up so onlt the ISS is up there
He was the first to say that the earth along with the other heavenly bodies orbited around the sun not the other way around.
Skylab was first in 1973 then Mir, it was started in 1986 and finished in 1996. Endeaver was biult in 1987
The name of the first US space station was Skylab. It was launched into orbit in 1973 and remained operational until 1979. Skylab was used for scientific research and experiments in microgravity.
Skylab
Skylab was designed by NASA and built by American engineers. It was launched into space on May 14, 1973 as the United States' first space station.
The United States launched Skylab, its first space station, in 1973. Skylab was launched by NASA atop a Saturn V rocket.

There were three manned Skylab missions conducted by NASA between 1973 and 1974. These missions, designated Skylab 2, Skylab 3, and Skylab 4, involved a total of 12 astronauts who conducted scientific experiments and observations aboard the first U.S. space station. Each mission lasted several weeks, with Skylab 4 being the longest, lasting 84 days.
The Skylab Space Station was the Untied States first space station, and was operated and launched by NASA in 1973. The Skylab Space Station stayed in Earth's orbit from 1973 to 1979.

Skylab was the first US manned space laboratory. It was launched in 1973 and orbited Earth until 1979. Skylab was used to conduct experiments in microgravity and study the effects of long-duration space missions on the human body.
