Skylab was NOT a lander, it was not designed to enter the atmosphere, this thing has a lander, not only does it have a lander, it has a lander that was designed and built to survive entry into Venus’s atmosphere and touch down on its surface... an atmosphere far denser and hotter than earths. While the main ship my burn up, the lander very well may survive reentry to earth in tact.
