Debunking the "faked earth photos" FE claim?

  • I came across this post on Answers in Genesis regarding FE claims that photos of earth are faked. I was looking for that meme that compares the different photos, and well, for the sake of Truth, I read the article and what he presents here is convincing to me.

    That's a good find DL. Tbh I just assumed that the images were for sure faked as well. Definitely interesting...

    Convincing explanation for the photos, the nasha part is BS.

    Unfortunately for him, we also he the admission from that photoshop guy and tonnes of proof that NASA faked the moon landing and more.

    I'm obviously still not convinced the "photos" are genuine, there are too many problems with them.

    One thing that came to mind is, while you CAN get photos like those claimed by NASA with a globe (as he proved), that does NOT mean their photos are legitimate; and even if they were, it does not prove the shape of the earth, as you could get similar results with a flat surface as well.

    Nah, it's junk.  NA is way too big (with SA barely visible where it should be), and distance would not make it THAT much bigger.  There are way too many variations than just the size of NA.  Shapes of continents, completely different shapes, different color schemes, and the obvious photoshopping (re-stamped cloud patterns), and the admission buy the one guy that it's photoshopped because it HAS to be.  NASA doesn't actually have anything out at these distances to get these pictures, so they take satellite pictures from much closer and shop it all together.

    So this article here focuses on only a single anomaly to falsely conclude that the pictures are real.  They're not.

    I'm actually surprised that NASA has been so lazy, since with their budget, they could actually come up with very convincing "pictures" if they wanted to.  But they're lazy and so you see guy pasting the same cloud patterns over and over again.  Of course, they probably figure that 95% of the public will buy it no matter how crappy they are, but that the 5% that don't buy it will not be convinced even if they did a better job on these.

  • Compare NASA's NA with this and the proportions and shapes are completely off ...
