Ferocious wildfires set SoCal ablaze

By KYLE ANDREW BROWN

The smoke drifting westward out into the Pacific Ocean from Southern California’s wildfires can be seen from the International Space Station. American Astronaut Randy Bresnik replied to a question on twitter saying: “I was asked this evening if we can see the SoCal fires from space. Yes Faith, unfortunately we can. May the Santa Ana’s die down soon.”
