SA-513 Saturn V launch

Flash back to May 14th 1973 SA-513, a modified unmarned two-stage Saturn V vehicle for the Skylab-1 mission is launched from the Cape. The initial step in the Skylab mission was the launch of a two-stage Saturn V booster, consisting of the S-IC first stage and the S-II second stage. Its payload was the unmanned Skylab, which consisted of the Orbital Workshop, the Airlock Module, the Multiple Docking Adapter, the Apollo Telescope Mount and an Instrument Unit. #otd #saturnv #nasa #skylab #aviationsafari #aviationpreservation #boneyardsafari #sa513 #skylab1
