Title: Skylab with USAF Airlock ?
Post by: Michel Van on 08/06/2017 09:43 am
I need your help

i found this picture of Skylab mockup in a Water tank.
label as "1970 Garriott nov 7013601"

What is interesting part is at the MDA has additional Airlock !
Labels as "USAF (unreadable text) D-21 (or D-ZI) AIRLOCK"

was that part of Skylab experiment that not went into space ?
From size and shape it reminds me of the Airlock design for MOL
