What are the red dots on the image Mike ?
Fires, usually.
How do you find when the UK's in the image, I've not managed to work that out
yet...
When you come to the page with all the dates, and then click on the required
date, you will come to the thumbnails page
http://rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/realtime/
you will see two small world maps at the top of this page showing the orbital
paths for both the Terra and the Aqua satellite.
Click on the maps and you will see the paths in detail with times. I find that
the UK, if it is not on the edge of the image, is usually available at about
1030-1130 on Terra and 1230-1330 on Aqua.
I sometimes use Mike's technique as well, looking for North Africa or Iberia in
the thumbnails.
