"Another Skylab"?  What the hell is THAT supposed to mean?  Skylab was, hands down, one of the most scientifically production, cost-efficient projects ever undertaken by NASA or anyone else.  Or are you referring to its untimely and unneccessary demise?  If we are, even in relative terms, anywhere near as successful as Skylab, I would consider it a work for a lifetime?

Observatories

Science? Consider:

1) Stratigraphic studies (drillings & soundings) over large regions

2) Sintering using a lunar based microwave oven

3) Radiation mitigation studies

4) Vacuum soil penetration/compaction mechanics

5) Structural mass/ground bearing investigations

6) Solar Hydrogen magnetic 'harvesting'

7) Vehicle/surface dynamics analysis

8) Human mobility systems analysis (non-wheeled, non-tracked systems)

9) DSN Station (sometimes used for certain interplanetary-scale experiments)

10) Solar telescope

11) Multi-point interferometry (with Earth stations)

12) Laser Sail test program (lander probe(s) to Mercury)

13) Bio-cellular low-gravity adaptation (plant/animal/human)

14) Supra-Thermal ion mapping/coronagraphic studies

15) Long-duration exposure study (bare and coated materials)

16) . . .

Well, I really should save something for the second week. . .
