“Long Overdue:This is an extremely well done documentary. Skylab is truly one of the easiest forgotten parts of America's Space Program, as it grew out of the Apollo Moon Missions, but was invaluable in obtaining information the U.S. needed to conduct future long-term spaceflight. Thank You for bringing this into the light of day!!”

Welcome, fellow lover of space! 
I'm stoked that you found this page.

Welcome, fellow lover of space! 
I'm stoked that you found this page.

You may wonder what untold space gems you'll discover here?

Let me tell you: I poured 10+ years of my life and all my savings into bringing the amazing story of Skylab to you. First, in a book, then as restored NASA documents and finally in a movie.

Why would I do all that? Because this NASA programme is unmatched. Skylab has been captivating me for well over a decade and the discoveries in my research were simply too monumental not to share.

Why would I do all that? Because this NASA programme is unmatched. Skylab has been captivating me for well over a decade and the discoveries in my research were simply too monumental not to share. 

How come? Let me ask you this:

• Did you know that we almost lost NASA itself due to problems at the launch of this space station? 

• Did you know that Skylab was the bold first step laying the groundwork for flying humans to Mars?

• Did you know that to this day, Skylab is the largest and heaviest object ever placed in a stable orbit?

• Did you know that thanks to Skylab, we learned more about the Sun than in the entire history of human kind until then?

I could go on and on, even beyond the station’s crash into Australia, which incredibly also counts as a great scientific success.
No, it was not possible to include everything in 98-minutes, but this film is packed with meticulously researched & restored, archival material that lay hidden in the dark for half a century. 

You get to see it now for the first time since 1974.  Curious to find out more? Join the ranks of those who dream big and hear the stories straight from the legends who crafted a chapter in history so bright that it's igniting again 50 years on.

"Told a true unknown story."
Anonymous, Audience

“Great docu-film!”
Massimiliano P.

“Fantastic video of Skylab program. ”
Terry W.

"I learned so much more than I realized."
Anonymous, Audience

“An excellent documentary on US early Space Station. Never before HD video of Launch, Station and Astronauts in in zero g performing medical experiments. Skylab eventually end in western Australia! This documentary fills a huge gap from Apollo to the beginning of the Shuttle."
Michael Nagle

“I purchased the film and enjoyed it tremendously at first glance. Have to look it a few more times to grasp all the new details. Very well done. I also agree that the archival material comes out much more when the modern interviews are monochrome.”
Dietrich Haeseler

“I watched this with my son - you just made a 9 year old space nerd very happy and he thought the black and white presentation for the modern material was spectacular, maybe you'll have set a trend going.”
