Apollo Applications eventually became to be known and flown as America's first space station, Skylab. The actual Skylab was launched "dry" but this document describes plans for a "wet" workshop. Rather than the one Saturn V launch that was needed for Skylab, the "wet" workshop plan called for 3 Saturn IB launches: 1 for the workshop/MDA, 1 for the Apollo CSM, and 1 for the LM-based ATM. Astronauts would take remote control of the ATM and use the LM's thrusters to dock with the station. Flights AAP-1 through AAP-4 are described. This NASA document is dated Feb. 1, 1969, and features rare diagrams and photographs. Note: This report is not vintage. It is a reprint of an original NASA document that was carefully scanned for this publication.
