Has any astronaut been lost in space?

Why did Skylab fall in 1979?
Unable to be re-boosted by the Space Shuttle, which was not ready until 1981, Skylab’s orbit decayed and it disintegrated in the atmosphere on July 11, 1979, scattering debris across the Indian Ocean and Western Australia.
Why was Skylab discontinued?
This lack of preparation presented a problem in late 1978, when NASA engineers discovered the station’s orbit was decaying rapidly. On July 11, 1979, with Skylab rapidly descending from orbit, engineers fired the station’s booster rockets, sending it into a tumble they hoped would bring it down in the Indian Ocean.
When was Martin Luther King Jr home bombed?
