STS-68 Space Shuttle Endeavour

Aerial view showing forest fires in southeastern Queensland, Australia, with the smoke blowing to the east on the southeastern edge of the Darling Downs, a wheat-growing and sheep pasture region just west of the Great Dividing Range, southwest of Brisbane. An extensive summer drought made the forests of the range highly susceptible to wildfire, during Space Shuttle Endeavour mission STS-68, October 1994. The primary payload of the eleven-day mission is the Space Radar Laboratory (SRL-2), which is making its second flight to study the Earth's environment.
