Medical legacy of Skylab as of May 9, 1974: the manned Skylab missions.
The purpose of these summary remarks is to put into proper focus the magnificent achievement created by the Skylab Medical Team in concert with their engineering colleagues and most importantly, the astronauts who had to serve as both investigators and subjects. Indeed, by their ingenuity and capability of handling the numerous problems encountered due to engineering deficiencies, they have shown man to be indispensable in long-duration space flight.
