THE MAN WHO GUARDS THE PLANET

摘要

You don't what don yeomans' job, no matter how appealing it seems. He's an astronomer at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Pasadena, Calif., which is awfully cool. And he's one of the lab's top guys, which is even better. The problem with Yeomans' job is the pressure. He is never really off duty, and his work is very straightforward: he guards the planet. Really. If morning dawns in your part of the world and all is still well, it's on Yeomans' watch. If your city or entire country is wiped out tomorrow, well, there's a case to be made that it's on Yeomans' head.
