Fire Photos From Space - NASA Satellite Returns Images of US Wildfires
As NASA’s Terra satellite passed over the State of Georgia, it picked up images of the wildfires that have been burning in the Southeast. The fires began on April 27, 2007, and continue to ravage Florida and Georgia, consuming roughly 50,000 acres.
Two of the largest fires are burning next to each other in the northern section of the Okefenokee Swamp, in Georgia’s Ware County, located just north of Jacksonville, FL. According to the National Interagency Fire Center, the Sweat Farm Road Fire burned near the town of Waycross in previous weeks, but by the end of April activity had moved to the southeast. These fires have burned over 50,000 acres of timber and swamps and threatened residents scattered throughout this rural area.
