    Skylab was America's first space station. Shortly after launch the micrometeoroid shield ripped off exposing the shiny gold layer underneath. As the shield tore away, one of the main solar arrays partially deployed. During staging, a retrorocket exhaust hit the partially deployed arrays completely ripping it off the spacecraft. The Orbital Workshop (OWS) had 2 floors. This video focuses on the second floor.

    -Launch Date: Nov 16, 1973
    -Mission Days: 84
    Animation notes:
    -Animation done in Blender with all models built by me. Used the lower quality EEVEE engine to reduce render times. But I did use 30 frames per second for the Skylab series vs 24 FPS I have used in previous Apollo videos.
    -Skylab Modeling is in the undamaged state. My models shows both main arrays and the shield in place. However I did not animate the deployment of the shield. If the actual shield deployed, it would slightly lift off the surface all around the vehicle

    What a marvel of visual detail and besides, the sound of the voices or music in the background is genius.
    We can move around and feel like we're inside Skylab moving between modules.
    It reminds me when I saw Skylab's interior on TV, the various tubes, compartments and cylinders.
    One of the most notorious and important engineering, were the solar panels (already shown in previous video), seen in perspective seemed to be larger than the module itself.👋👋👋

      Thanks much for your comments. When I know what people like, it helps me put out better ones.

    Once again congratulations on the work. Particularly when I want to feel inside Skylab modules or Apollo 11, I watch the videos.
    I know it must have been a lot of work but the videos represent the story.
    I would like to make a suggestion that comes to mind.
    It would be feasible to make the interior of the space shuttle and a more ambitious project, which is the interior of the ISS.

      Thanks for your comments. Probably not the ISS. While it is pretty big, you can see some great inside tours of the actual space station on TH-cam and if you have an Oculus, you can take a free tour of the ISS including navigating anywhere you want. At least with Skylab and my Apollo Series, I think I am showing the interiors better than the old 1960s and 1970s actual footage can give you. In the actual footage, you can't really see the details of anything.

      @@opieswenson Thanks for the info, I'll search ISS tour on youtube,
      I also agree that making videos of historic projects contributes more than current ones.
      Your videos show clear details more than real videos.
      Congratulations and thanks for showing.

      Here is a good ISS tour: th-cam.com/video/06-Xm3_Ze1o/w-d-xo.html
