Aspen Fire, Arizona
Images from NASA's Terra and Aqua satellites have become a regular part of the National Interagency Fire Center's firefighting toolkit. The images help the center track fires on a daily basis and are used in allocating precious firefighting resources.
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on board the NASA satellite acquired the data for these images.
