Skylab gets a temporary lease as Congress weighs rescue plan
Skylab’s orbit was steadied by a NASA led maneuver that tipped the station to reduce atmospheric drag. NASA and space officials push for a third shuttle flight in October 1979 to attach a 10000 pound teleoperator and lift Skylab to a higher orbit or deorbit it safely. Congress previously rejected a 20.5 million request, but may revisit if life extension proves possible.
