Wildfires burning around California's Central Valley, seen from the Space Shuttle on August 20, 2001

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Original NASA Earth Observatory caption: "After undocking with Space Station Alpha, on August 20, 2001, astronauts on the Space Shuttle photographed wildfires burning in the western U.S. using a digital camera. With a shorter lens, astronauts recorded the regional view at top, showing the smoke around the California Central Valley blowing into Nevada. Zooming in with a longer lens length, astronauts recorded details of individual fires. The digital images were then down-linked to the ground."
