Skylab LUT
« on: 02/26/2007 12:40 am »
I was curious on why the White Room access arm was moved for the Skylab Saturn V. As in this photo http://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/pao/History/alsj/skylab/skylab-KSC-73PC-180.jpg compared to the Apollo Saturn V ? I was also curious as to why it is swung over to Skylab. Was there a hatch there?

There was hatch added for access to the Orbital Workshop portion of the Skylab cluster for late stowage

I see. What other changes were made to the Saturn V LUT for Skylab besides the change of one acess arm?
