Skylab: Living and Working in Space

Phillip Brooker

I started some research in Summer 2019 on NASA's Skylab 4 mission - infamous for being (allegedly, though wrongly) the first and only strike in space. So here's a work-in-progress podcast mini-series that traces my progress with the research as it's playing out. Anyone who's interested in things like Science & Technology Studies, ethnomethodology and conversation analysis, and work-related disputes about workload/dataification/etc, have a listen and let me know what you think (I'm on Twitter at @pdbrooker and Mastodon @pdbrooker@mastodon.online), thanks!
