EP7, Skylab: ASOS...IN SPAAAAACCCEEEE!!!!! (Part Five: The Roundup) Skylab: Living and Working in Space
-
- Society & Culture
The seventh in a mini-series on a work-in-progress research project on NASA's Skylab programme, and particularly the Skylab-4 mission. This episode is wraps up an initial analysis of the mission's conversation transcripts covering the five days of the alleged "strike" period of the mission. Some of the central themes of the events of these days are brought out in relation the current context of the UK Higher Education system (where Skylab stands as an uncomfortable allegory to be faced in light of the recent and forthcoming periods of widespread industrial action).
I repeatedly refer to this episode as a long one...but it's actually not ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Whatevs, hope you like it, and onto the next phase of the project!
