Fires are burning throughout Australia's Northern Territory, seen here in this true-color MODIS image. The image is centered on the Macdonnell Ranges, which stand out in greens and browns against the reddish sands of the Simpson Desert to the southeast and the paler Barkly Tableland region to the northeast.
