I remember when Skylab fell to Earth in 1979.

When it happened, Chic had a hit song called “Good Times”.

There is a big old rusty boiler out in the middle of desert close to where I live, left over from the mining era, looks kind of like a rocket, and years ago, someone painted “Skylab” on the side.
