Skylab put in sideways orbit as crash date accelerates
Johnson Space Center controllers maneuver Skylab into a sideways attitude to boost stability and hasten its descent. The change reduces solar power but offers greater control to steer debris away from populated areas. Officials expect a July landing window with a 50 percent chance of impact by July 16 and warn power will be challenged as sunlight exposure drops.
