From left to right, Skylab, the Dome, and the New Elevated Station, as seen from the porch of ARO (Atmospheric Research Observatory). ARO is located upwind of the rest of the station, in order to prevent air pollution from the station interfering with their air samples. Fortunately, the wind flows pretty constantly in one direction, so this can be done.
