What Earth looks like from space. It's apparently not the way a human eye would see it, but this is what it looks like before adjustments are made to correct for human vision. That makes no sense to me, but that's what the article says.


So why is it different from what we see from ISS?



Why does the sky look different in different movies? Some look white, some look pale blue, etc.

If I have a camera and my neighbor has another camera and we take a picture of a tree, why they look a little different???

You can’t be this dumb

I'm at a loss as to the flat earthers. When I was in the USAF I had the privilege of working with NASA and daily got to see live footage of the Earth from the space station.

It's not flat.

I linked you an article with an untouched up, unedited photo of Earth. What's the problem with it?

I have a question...it’s just one word question...
Why?

Please explain why they would do this? Do they get less money if it’s different than the photos?

Edited since you said you didn’t say flat earth. Same applies...why?

Odd thing for a guy to blurt out who was only looking for a phone background and nothing more

In every single pic so far the color of the water and land is different..ok


You do realize that this is possible with any film or digital picture?

Much less by atmospheric dust amounts and time of day and angle the picture is being taken in relation to the sun.

That doesn’t mean it’s altered or optimized.

For what it is worth, this is the only modern non composite photo of the earth.

Why is there never any other stars in pictures of earth

The relative brightness of Earth compared to the stars causes the image of stars to disappear when the camera's exposure is correct for Earth.

I know what you’re getting at. The shape of the continents and their positioning on the planet. Like the one for the UN logo

That is because water (oceans) and land aren't typically the same color. Water is usually some shade of blue and land is either brown or green, depending on the location.
