KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. - Airmen from the 920th Rescue Wing at nearby Patrick Air Force Base land this HH-60G Pave Hawk helicopter at the shuttle landing facility here in preparation for Space Shuttle Discovery's last lift off Feb. 24. The Reserve Airmen provide NASA space shuttle support operations and are responsible for rescuing the astronauts if they were to bail out of the shuttle into the Ocean due to an emergency situation. Not only are the reservists on alert during lift off, but remain ready for anything until the shuttle returns safely with the astronauts on board. (U.S. Air Force photo/Capt. Matthew C. Simpson)
