Apollo Skylab 2 command module on display at the National Museum of Naval Aviation in Pensacola, Florida. This museum is located on the Pensacola Naval Air Station. Follow signs to the base gate, and ask the guard for permission to visit the museum. Skylab 2 was the first manned flight to Skylab, with Skylab 1 being the launch of the huge space station. Skylab was damaged on lift-off, and this mission was essentially a rescue mission that featured extensive space walks and improvised hardware solutions.
