Colorado Wildfire Imaged in Infrared by NASA Satellite

The 416 Fire started June 1, 2018, about 13 miles (18 kilometers) north of Durango, Colorado. Four weeks later, the fire was mostly contained, after consuming 35,000 acres of timber and brush. The cause of the fire is presently unknown. This image, acquired June 26, 2018 by the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection (ASTER) radiometer instrument aboard NASA's Terra satellite, shows vegetation in red, clouds in white, cities and bare rocky areas in gray, and the burned area in dark gray. A few small hot spots, detected on ASTER's thermal channels, are overlain in yellow. Smoke can be seen drifting eastward from these hotspots. The data cover an area of 15.2 by 12.9 miles (25.3 by 21.5 kilometers) located at 7.5 degrees north, 107.9 degrees east.
