View of Skylab space station cluster in Earth orbit from CSM

An overhead view of the Skylab space station cluster in Earth orbit as
photographed from the Skylab 4 Command and Service Modules (CSM) during the
final fly-around by the CSM before returning home. The space station is
contrasted against a cloud-covered Earth. Note the solar shield which was
deployed by the second crew of Skylab and from which a micrometeoroid
shield has been missing since the cluster was launched on May 14, 1973.
the OWS solar panel on the left side was also lost on workshop launch day. (Source: KSC)
