PREVIEW

摘要

On newsstands now, a new collector's edition-with astronaut profiles and stunning photographs-recounts the greatest engineering triumph of the last century and previews the 21 st century missions to return to the moon. Last year's fire season in California proved that the state must wage war to combat fires. When firefighters on the ground call in air support, Cal Fire Aviation responds by dropping water or fire-retardant from airplanes and helicopters long retired by the military. Cal Fire's pilots must precisely place their loads-or risk losing lives and houses to the flames. It's as close to military flying as a civilian can get.
