Ученые из NASA публикуют в Twitter фотографии масштабных лесных пожаров на юге американского штата Калифорния, полученные от астронавтов с Международной космической станции.
Как известно, 5 декабря в штате Калифорния ввели режим чрезвычайной ситуации из-за лесных пожаров. Огонь уничтожил более 150 домов, еще 3 тыс. зданий находятся под угрозой. Пожар, который назвали Томас, уже охватил территорию площадью в 36 гектаров.
From @Space_Station it looks like the winds have shifted and hopefully dying down, nice to see Point Mugu and Oxnard again, hopefully Ventura soon. #CaliforniaWildfires pic.twitter.com/7qN8u1M0Q6

Today’s pass over SoCal unfortunately doesn’t look any better. The fires east of Camp Pendleton and in Baja are visible as well. #CaliforniaWildfires pic.twitter.com/khM9TK1u0F

Data & imagery of the California wildfires from our satellites, people in space and aircraft, not only give us a better view of the activity, but also help 1st responders plan their course of action. Get the details: https://t.co/BN9dmPiXep pic.twitter.com/82MQ3mU521
