This dummy was left behind in the Skylab space station by the Skylab-3 crew to be found by the Skylab-4 crew. The dummy is dressed in a flight suit and placed in the Lower Body Negative Pressure Device. The name tag indicates that it represents SL-4 commander Gerry Carr; in the background is a partial view of the dummy for Bill Pogue, propped up on the bicycle ergometer, while the dummy representing Ed Gibson was left in the waste compartment.
