Skylab to reenter Earth with limited chance of safe rescue
NASA announced Skylab will reenter the atmosphere and break apart over a wide area, scattering debris across a 4000 by 100 mile track. Though efforts last March aimed to extend life for a shuttle to boost or steer reentry, deteriorating systems and limited control reduce chances of a safe mission. Skylab, launched May 1973 in a 2.5 billion program, now orbits about 265 miles up and NASA will track debris as reentry nears.

Growth forecast and oil prices rock markets worldwide
Growth projections for next year sit near 2 to 3 percent as the administration and the Fed seek slower expansion to curb inflation. OPEC’s price hike spooked markets, sending the Dow down to 787.51 and dampening the dollar while gold surged. Commerce data show November personal income up 1 percent and housing starts at 2.1 million, though building permits fell to 1.69 million signaling housing cost pressures.
