Zoom to Montana Fires Showing SeaWiFS Data and the Landsat-7 Thermal Channel

This animation shows the western fires burning in Montana. The initial frame is a SeaWiFS image showing the smoke plume stretching clear across the country. The camera zooms into the source of the fires, flying through the smoke plume, and revealing a composite image of visible and thermal Landsat7 data.
