Skylab

The Apollo Telescope Mount (ATM) was designed and developed by the Marshall Space Flight Center and served as the primary scientific instrument unit aboard Skylab (1973-1979). The ATM consisted of eight scientific instruments as well as a number of smaller experiments. In this image, the set of four large solar cell arrays, which could produce up to as much as 1.1 kilowatts of electric power, are being installed on an ATM prototype.
