They need to be able to measure it proportionately to the real thing

And yes it is

Yes

It’s to scale

Lmao that’s an actual feature on even free cad softwares like blender

Why don't they apply UV mapping, textures and lighting to the CAD model?

Cause why would they

They only need to test the station

Because it may mess up the small details

Make vital errors less visible

I thought you believed the earth was flat you seem like you just really don’t like nasa

^^^^^

How easy do you think it would be to render the 3D CAD model they already have to make it appear real?

There are these things called GPUs

They can render a lot

In like 10 minutes

Do you think NASA owns at least one GPU?

YES

Alright, @LEGO Joker has been warned for '**Bad word usage**'.

OBVIOUSLY

So is it possible the footage you are watching on board the ISS is a rendered version of the 3D CAD model you acknowledge the space agencies use?

not really

No

Why not?

@Human Sheeple what is the source for this gif https://imgur.com/a/GhI50Ja

nasa dot gov

Why would they fake it

link pls

Try get no gain

The earth is round

It’s spherical yes

Why then is mars Jupiter the moon and the sun spherical

Yet you say the earth is flat

@LEGO Joker That's not an answer, I want to know whether or not it is possible the ISS feed you see is a rendered, textured, illuminated, bump mapped, shaded version of the CAD model you saw, please will you answer the question? You told me it was NOT possible I wanted to know WHY it is not possible @LEGO Joker ?

Not a photo realistic one

So if it was not photo realistic, you would be able to see "glitches" in the CGI augmented reality, would you not?

What

CGI augmented reality

The earth is cool

How would you know if the International Space Station was a CGI rendered 3D model?
