US-SPACE-WILDFIRES-CALIORNIA

This July 4, 2008 image provided by NASA shows the Piute fire in California as seen from the International Space Station. The Piute fire, burning south of Lake Isabella in the Sequoia National Forest in the southern Sierra Nevada Mountains, is one of the more than 300 wildfires burning across the state of California. The fire started June 28 just north of Twin Oaks, California, and has burned nearly 14,000 acres so far. Current estimates by fire officials suggest the fire may not be brought under control for another two weeks. AFP PHOTO / NASA == GETTY OUT ==
