The laboratory will be launched on Apr. 30, 1973, aboard a Saturn V vehicle. Approximately twenty-three and a half hours later the first crew will be launched in a command and service module aboard a Saturn IB launch vehicle. The laboratory will consist of modules. The orbital workshop (OWS) is made from the liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen tanks of a Saturn S-IVB third stage. The OWS contains the living quarters and two experiments areas. The airlock sits on top of the OWS and contains the controls and hatch for the extra-vehicular activity.
