There was a [[Skylab Rescue]] mission assembled for the second crewed mission to Skylab, but it was not needed. Another rescue mission was assembled for the last Skylab and was also on standby for ASTP. These missions used a backup Saturn IB rocket ([[Skylab Rescue#AS 209|SA-209]]) and CSM module ([[Skylab Rescue|CSM-119]]).
