how come we dont have a real photo of earth?

so, i was watching a video on youtube which brought up a point that all earth photos we have are photoshopped. Yes nasa even admits it stitches together photos of earth taken from space to create earth pics. before you laugh this away - the use of clone tool is evident in some of the pics, Americas size keeps changing, the colors of the earth keeps changing and the word "sex" has been spotted on a supposed earth "photo".

how is it possible that nasa can shoot hi-res photos of mars and pluto but not of earth??? like why cant they just turn there dam cameras back to earth and click a picture??

why join multiple images on photoshop?

have iss astronats on space walks ever taken a picture in which earth is FULLY seen?????

have iss astronats on space walks ever taken a picture in which earth is FULLY seen?????

No. Because when in low Earth orbit (where space walks occur) the entire disk of the Earth cannot be seen. The Earth is pretty big.

Indeed. But that is not relevant to the question.

YouTube videos say all sorts of things that aren't true.

Yes nasa even admits it stitches together photos of earth taken from space to create earth pics.

Why would they deny this?

before you laugh this away -

Too late.

the use of clone tool is evident in some of the pics,

Example, please.

Americas size keeps changing, the colors of the earth keeps changing

I suggest a beginner's photography class.

and the word "sex" has been spotted on a supposed earth "photo".

This is a joke, right?

how is it possible that nasa can shoot hi-res photos of mars and pluto but not of earth???

There are countless hi-res photos of Earth.

like why cant they just turn there dam cameras back to earth and click a picture??

More information is needed to provide an answer. Which cameras?

why join multiple images on photoshop?

To create more aesthetically pleasing images for publicity purposes.

No, because they are far too close to the Earth to do so.

1. "sex" has been spotted on EARTH. nasas photoshop artists tend to be mischevous, apparently

2. You dont need to be a photographer to see that north america keeps changing sizes even wheb shot from the same angle.

3. create aesthetically pleasing images? I thought thats hollywoods job? oh wait....

By the way, that image and announcement are from Last Year. You may want to do more careful research and not depend so much on Youtube crackpots for information.

So, what's your point?
1) No one or no thing has left Earth.
2) The Earth is flat.


I'm guessing #2.

a reply to: clevargenuis

because we all know it's flat....

i'm just playing......

or am I ?????

my point is that there are some anomalies / discrepancies in the imagery released by NASA and it needs closer scrutiny.

Maybe if you, I don't know, linked to some photos you think are suspect we could possibly see what you're on about?

a reply to: clevargenuis

So, no ideas about what's up?

But ok. Go for it. Scrutinize away.
But realize that is unlikely that any of your "anomalies" have not been discussed on multiple occasions.

Apollo 8 comes to mind on this, they even quoted a few verses from the book of Genesis in their broadcast on Christmas Eve at an Earthrise.

# 2 That doesn't mean they are shot from the same camera and the same distance, on every picture.

# 3 They sometimes do it to exclude cloud cover.

you can google the images and see for yourself

a reply to: clevargenuis
There are a lot of images of Earth.
Can you be more specific?

a reply to: clevargenuis

Did you even read the article I linked? Proof that NASA has taken a non stitched picture, from a distance of about 1 million miles. That should give you all you need and there's no reason for you to keep going on about "anomalies".
But, I think you've already made up your mind and you'll ignore any proof presented.

#2. Continents shouldnt change sizes in photos

#3. so what if clouds are seen? why cant nasa give us an authentic photo, clouds or no clouds?
