  • Labor History: the Astronaut Strike by Ed Leavy
    Labor History: The Astronaut Strike By Ed Leavy Walking a picket line is not an option when orbiting thousands of miles above the earth, but that did not prevent the three crew on Skylab 4 from going on strike. On December 28, 1973, the three astronauts – Jerry Carr, Ed Gibson, and William Pogue – switched off their radio connection to NASA ground control in Houston and spent their time, “studying the sun, the earth below, and ourselves,” wrote Pogue. Meanwhile, the ground staff grumbled, unable to do anything. As anyone who has ever read The Right Stuff knows, the tension between NASA’s engineers staff in Houston and the astronauts has existed from the beginning of the space program. The astronauts saw themselves as the ones taking all the risks; nine American astronauts and six Soviet cosmonauts had died during the ten years before the Skylab 4 launch. Engineers and the ground crew resented the cult of celebrity astronauts had and viewed them as little more than drones; they would occasionally point out that the first flights were done with monkeys, and that worked out fine. By the time of Skylab 4, public interest in the space program had begun to wane, and with the loss of fame for the astronauts came a loss of status within the program. The schedule created for the Skylab astronauts was grueling. The 84-day orbit was the longest anyone had endured. Carr, Gibson, and Pogue were given 16-hour schedules for the entire journey; there was no personal time built into the plan. The schedule made tension inevitable, and it began immediately.

  • Skylab: the Human Side of a Scientific Mission
    SKYLAB: THE HUMAN SIDE OF A SCIENTIFIC MISSION Michael P. Johnson, B.A. Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2007 APPROVED: J. Todd Moye, Major Professor Alfred F. Hurley, Committee Member Adrian Lewis, Committee Member and Chair of the Department of History Sandra L. Terrell, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Johnson, Michael P. Skylab: The Human Side of a Scientific Mission. Master of Arts (History), May 2007, 115pp., 3 tables, references, 104 titles. This work attempts to focus on the human side of Skylab, America’s first space station, from 1973 to 1974. The thesis begins by showing some context for Skylab, especially in light of the Cold War and the “space race” between the United States and the Soviet Union. The development of the station, as well as the astronaut selection process, are traced from the beginnings of NASA. The focus then shifts to changes in NASA from the Apollo missions to Skylab, as well as training, before highlighting the three missions to the station. The work then attempts to show the significance of Skylab by focusing on the myriad of lessons that can be learned from it and applied to future programs. Copyright 2007 by Michael P. Johnson ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis would not be possible without the help of numerous people. I would like to begin, as always, by thanking my parents. You are a continuous source of help and guidance, and you have never doubted me. Of course I have to thank my brothers and sisters.

Funkhouser (Fellows dv' or) (Executive Director) April 2004 Major: History ABSTRACT Skylab The Forgotten Missions. (April 2004) Michael P. Johnson Department of History Texas A&M University Fellows Advisor: Dr. Jonathan Coopersmith Department of History The Skylab program featured three manned missions to America's first and only space station from May 1973 to February 1974. A total of nine astronauts, including one scientist each mission, flew aboard the orbital workshop. Since the Skylab missions contained major goals including science and research in the space environment, the majority of publications dealing with the subject focus on those aspects. This thesis intends to focus, rather, on the human elements of the three manned missions. By incorporating not only books, but also oral histories and interviews with the actual participants, this work contains a more holistic approach and viewpoint. Beginning with a brief history of the development of a space station, this document also follows the path of the nine astronauts to their acceptance into the program. Descriptions of the transition period for NASA from the Moon to a space station, a discussion on the main events of all the missions, and finally a look at the transition to the new space shuttle comprise a major part of the body.

Of note, the Spaceport News header, went through some 10 different logo schemes, from 1963 through 1995. The longest running logo is below, which ran from the first issue, on December 13, 1962, until June 12, 1975. From The January 7, 1983, Spaceport News The following photo is on the first page. The caption reads “TECHNICIANS TRANSFER the Tracking and Data Relay Satellite and its Inertial Upper Stage, the primary cargo for STS-6, into the transport canister. The canister and cargo were moved to Launch Pad 39A Dec. 27. There the cargo has been undergoing checkout in the Payload Changeout Room. I believe the photo is taken in the Vertical Processing Facility and it was the first vertical payload processed for Shuttle there. Page 1 This article is on page 2, “Astronaut Physicians Added to Flight Crews”. In part, the article reads “Dr. Norman Thagard and Dr. William Thornton have been named as the fifth crew members scheduled to be aboard Space Shuttle missions STS-7 and STS-8, respectively. Thagard and Thornton, both physicians, have been added to assist in accomplishment of additional mission objectives. Neither has flown in space before… …Both Thagard and Thornton, mission specialists, will conduct medical tests to collect additional data on several physiological changes that are associated with the space adaptation syndrome. These tests will focus on the neurological system and are a continuation of the new approach to making inflight measurements which began on STS-4….” Page 2 “STS-7 CREW MEMBERS were at KSC for the Shuttle Interface Test on Dec.
