Image Caption: Australian Fires at Night
Wildfires and perhaps some intentionally set agricultural fires burn on the continent of Australia, with smoke plumes faintly visible in the night sky in this astronaut photograph from the International Space Station. A gold and green halo of atmospheric airglow hangs above the horizon in the distance.
