Can we never ever have this thread again now?

>>9779384
Ok genius, the globe stays the same size, yet North America changes in size.

>>9779753
>I dont know is what focal length is

why are the colors so different

>>9779753
the globe stays the same size, yet the bands change in apparent width

why are flatheads always terminally retarded when it comes to basic perspective and optics? this is almost as embarrassing as that one who kept telling me that the sun can be blocked by the earth without the earth actually being between the sun and the viewer.
commit kakuro.

>>9779978
>why are flatheads always terminally retarded

because it boosts their self esteem to reject things they dont comprehend.

The focal lengths are the same, the distance from the ball changes.

>>9780421
if this was true, the ball wouldn't be in focus in both pictures.

>>9779315
Both of them are constructed images, not raw photos. Neither are what earth actually looks like from space

Go away.

Op brings up an interesting issue. I am not a flat earther but am aware of NASA hoax videos involving wire harnesses and space bubbles. This does not necessarily mean all space missions are faked. Budget and technical limitations are the most likely culprits.

Not having a live feed (or continuous photos) of Earth is another mystery to add. We have photos of other planets, it should be an easy task. NASA is hiding something but flat earth is NOT the answer. We know the military plan is for total dominance and they are ultimately in control of NASA. Considering weather modification has been in practice for many years. It is possible they are hiding the effects of chemtrail spraying on a global scale. If the public had access to real live video, we could visually identify anomalies. Comparing before and after photos may also shine light on facts that the military industrial complex wouldn't want the public to see.

There is a thing called focusing.
>>9781187
Focal length is effectively the magnification, like a 50mm lens has a focal length of 50mm (equivalent usually).

I think I uses 13mm for all those photos. Yes, I did try to actually give you accurate information. If you increase magnification (focal length) from the same distance you just zoom, the amount of the ball you see would be the same but it would fill more of the frame.
Vsauce has a video on the Moon's terminato which demonstrates this in video form.

There's a live stream from the ISS, new photos every 10 from Himawari8 and several photos a day from DSCOVR.
A lack of visual imagry of Earth from space there is not.

>>9781247
not to mention the thousands of images every hour from small imaging constellations like Digitalglobe and planet

>>9781240
Go to /x/. Chemtrails aren’t real.

>A lack of visual imagry of Earth from space there is not.

The area covered is always extremely limited. Do we have a satellite that records the whole planet?

>>9781258
Literally impossible. How the fuck would a satellite see the other side of earth?

>>9779753
>the globe stays the same size,
What are you using for scale?
At any altitude, the globe is a circle, but the lower your altitude, the less stuff is in the circle.

>>9781258
DSCOVR is positioned so it sees the entire Earth rotate.

The second image is a near-sided perspective projection of part of the western hemisphere. This distorts the image with a fisheye effect

>>9781258
Look up full disk imagery. A number of geostationary weather satellites can see the entirety of one view from the earth. So can the DSCOVR satellite.

Of course a flat earth copout for all this is that even these images could be doctored to project the flat earth image onto a sphere.

>>9781247
Himawari8 appears to be weather simulations and composites from multiple data sources.

Congratulations?

>am aware of NASA hoax videos involving wire harnesses and space bubbles.
Stop believing every dumb conspiracy video you find on the internet.

>Not having a live feed (or continuous photos) of Earth is another mystery to add.
Is the mystery how bad you are at basic internet searches?

Jesus fucking Christ.

Yes, for crying out loud.
Here: knock yourself out. Sheesh.

Fookin ignoramuses gotta be spoon-fed everything.

Why do people get so butthurt over flat earthers? Who cares, let them believe what they want. Even evolution deniers don't get attacked like this. The fact that they're pushing this anti-flat earth meme so hard only makes me wonder if maybe there might be something to it. Like when they used to insist that there is no way the government could spy on us on a mass scale because of technical limitations.

>>9781358
Because they come and shit on our lawns.

>>9781358
Where do you see people attacking flat earth? On science forums or pseudoscience forums? Which group is shitting up the other group's forums?
