Skylab 4 Prime Crew

The three members of the Skylab 4 crew are photographed standing near Pad B, Launch Complex 39, Kennedy Space Center, Florida, during preflight activity. They are, left to right, scientist-astronaut Edward G. Gibson, science pilot; astronaut Gerald P. Carr, commander; and astronaut William R. Pogue, pilot. The Skylab 4/Saturn 1B space vehicle is on the pad in the background. Skylab 4, the third and last manned visit to the Skylab space station in Earth orbit, will return additional information on the Earth and sun, as well as provide a favorable location from which to observe the recently discovered Comet Kohoutek.
