| ISS007-E-18088 (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 18086
and 18087 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 left and right, respectively, at bottom 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/. |
