NASA released a dramatic image of the Los Angeles fires as seen from space.

The image covers 152 miles of the Southland. Smoke from the Station fire is seen covering the San Gabriel Mountains along with parts of the City of Los Angeles and Orange County, and can be seen drifting for hundreds of miles to the east over the Mojave Desert.

It was taken mid-morning on Aug. 30 by NASA's Terra satellite. You can view a high resolution version at NASA.gov.
