    See in the previous posts and the link to Peterson's FAQ page that answers most questions and a few you hadn't thought of.
    .
    Some aspects (like clouds) get overexposed when the rest of the frame is enhanced to bring out the otherwise too-dark images.

    Peterson has one of the original photographs on his FAQ page:



    "an actual photo from the ISS, taken with a 15 mm lens on a Nikon D3S, for comparison"
    "The photos were taken with a long exposure (about 1-3 seconds per photo, depending on the sequence)"

    So here we have a non-enhanced original photo.

    Clouds are snow as white although there is no light from above other than from the stars.

    Here is a six and a half hours video of a transatlantic flight from Philadelphia to Dublin:




    Start is at 0:34:30. As you can see, the ocean and/or clouds from above are pitch dark in the night from around 0:39:00 to 4:45:00.
    Around 4:55:00 the sun starts rising. At 5:10:00 you can see the clouds.

    I have been flying above the clouds for roughly 12 hours a few times. I believe that the ISS-photos are fake.

    What a loser! I've seen some boring videos but to FAKE a boring video has to be the worst. Why bother?
    .
    BTW the ISS "All Alone in the Night" is covering land, not just ocean, and it's from 40 times the altitude of American Airlines flights.

    .
    Where does Peterson say there was no moonlight?
    Where do you get, "there is no light from above other than from the stars?" Just making stuff up, eh?
    You had better get some experience before you start passing judgment.
    The clouds there are not "snow as white" (white as snow?). They are gray.
    You should be able to see what white is by comparing it to your own computer screen, or hold a white sheet of paper next to it.
    .
    Can you read?
    The photos were taken with 1-3 seconds [from one to three seconds exposure time] per photo.
    Do you have any idea what that means?
    .
    Your American Airlines video did not use any 3-second exposures.
    It didn't use any 1-second exposures.
    It didn't even use any 1/50th second exposures.
    Your fake AA video doesn't even bother to mention what the exposure setting was. Probably automatic.
    Which means the exposure time was around 1/60th up to 1/250th second. Chances are, I've already lost you.
    So how could it capture the gray clouds without having used extended time exposures?

  • Nothing NASA says is true.  And even if 1/2 of what they say is true, they are liars just the same.  Fake photos, doctored up to suit NASA's latest pagan version of a false model is fodder for the trash bin.

    Peterson's "All Alone in the Night" is a compilation to be proud of, even if flat-earthdom syndromers are oblivious to the fact.

    .
    He used stock photographs and enhanced them the same way any photographer does when rendering a product.
    They are still original photographs, not CGI. 
    Something flat-earthdom syndromers can't grasp, obviously.
