I only see fire data available for the last 7 days on your website. How can I get older data?

Data for the last 2 months can be downloaded as text (TXT) files, older data can be obtained through the MODIS Fire Archive Download Tool or directly from the MODIS Fire Team Science Computing Facility at the University of Maryland. MODIS data are available from November 2000 (for Terra) and from July 2002 (for Aqua) to the present. VIIRS 375 m data are available from 20 January 2012 to the present (for Suomi NPP) and 1 January 2020 to the present (For NOAA-20).
