Until 5 years ago, the US had only 1 full shot of the sunlit face of earth...

This was not widely known...there are hundreds of examples where they published an image and failed to disclose it was artist's image or stitched together

My favorite was the Jupiter image of their aurora, then they had to go back and say it was stitched together...
It's a sweet intel play, show something obviously fake, then go back and put disclaimers on images saying, "it was obviously fake, but we'll put disclaimers just in case"

Why the heck does a government agency play these games...oh yeah, while the left is out there looking for Nazis amongst norms conservatives, NASA was actually run by them for 30 years...
