About the Cover
Cover. The aerial view on the cover this month signals our issue theme of weapons of mass destruction. This other-worldly scene is in fact the Area 3 Nevada Test Site. The pictured containers are full of low-level nuclear waste, which is being buried in craters caused by underground nuclear testing.
