Earth observation taken by the Expedition 28 crew
ISS028-E-045031 (8 Sept. 2011) --- This panoramic view of Texas, the Gulf of Mexico and surrounding area was photographed by one of the Expedition 28 crew members aboard the International Space Station. Big smoke near the Red River is from the Magnolia/Longview complex of fires; the fire just northwest of Houston (right center) is the Waller fire. A great deal of thicker smoke haze can be spotted coming from indeterminate sources.
