| ISS007-E-18086 (26 October 2003) --- The fires in the San
Bernardino Mountains, fueled by Santa Ana winds, burned out of control on
the morning of Oct. 26, 2003, when this image and several others were taken
from the International Space Station. This frame and image numbers 18087
and 18088 were taken at approximately 19:54 GMT, October 26, 2003 with a
digital still camera equipped with a 400mm lens. Lake Arrowhead and Silverwood
Lake are just out of frame. Content was provided by JSC’s Earth Observation
Lab. The International Space Station Program supports the laboratory to
help crew members take pictures of Earth that will be of the greatest value
to scientists and the public, and to make those images freely available
on the Internet. Additional images taken by astronauts and cosmonauts can
be viewed at the NASA/JSC Gateway to Astronaut Photography of Earth -- http://eol.jsc.nasa.gov/. |
