When it comes to wildfires, NASA leverages its unique perspective from space to formulate predictive analysis, contribute to active fire monitoring and assist in post-fire recovery and rehabilitation. Using 2017’s Complex Fire in Northern California as a case study, "Operation Earth: Wildfires" takes viewers into the field with first responders, fire scientists and forest managers to see what challenges they face and how NASA can help mitigate the effects of longer and more intense fire seasons.
