Satellites from the space agency have been tracking thick smoke and high temperatures from the record-breaking fires.
The images were captured by NASA's Ecosystem Spaceborne Thermal Radiometer Experiment on Space Station . This particular instrument is different from other satellites because it's able to observe multiple areas of Earth at various times throughout the day, which makes it uniquely able to monitor the Amazon fires.
The record-breaking fires have caused global concern, with French President Emmanuel Macron calling them an"international crisis." But President Donald Trump did not commit to the aid package during the G7 summit. National Security Council spokesman Garret Marquis said on Wednesday that there was a lack of coordination with the Brazilian government and that the president never committed to the deal. Trump also skipped the G7 meeting on climate change and the Amazon.
Trump praised Bolsanaro for his handling of the fires, despite the international outcry over the Brazilian leader's role in increased deforestation of the region and weakened environmental regulations.
