Add to Lightbox DownloadDecember 17, 2019 - Australia - View from Terra of the difficult fire season in Australia in southern hemisphere spring. The image at the top of the page comes from Terra's Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), which observes Earth in 36 different wavelengths. Acquired on December 17, 2019, the false-color image combines visible and infrared light (bands 7-2-1) to distinguish fire burn scars (orange to brown) from healthy vegetation (green) in New South Wales. Red pixels represent areas where Terra detected heat signatures indicative of active fire. (Credit Image: © NASA Earth/ZUMA Wire/ZUMAPRESS.com)
