florida? maybe just give me a bit of context.

2019-05-24 18:51:18 UTC  

florida the gulf of mexico and a small part of the atlantic is a quarter of earth

2019-05-24 18:51:27 UTC  

what context look at it

2019-05-24 18:51:49 UTC  

what context do u need

2019-05-24 18:51:58 UTC  

hello

2019-05-24 18:52:02 UTC  

I am. you're saying there's too much landmass visible.

2019-05-24 18:52:24 UTC  

do u think the gulf of mexico florida and a small piece of the atlantic is a quarter of the globe

2019-05-24 18:52:39 UTC  

certainly not

2019-05-24 18:52:51 UTC  

so u think thats a real pic

2019-05-24 18:52:55 UTC  

accurate

2019-05-24 18:53:03 UTC  

is that pic accurate

2019-05-24 18:53:23 UTC  

I'm inclined to believe it's real because I trust the source. perhaps there's a wide filed of view on that lens causing distortion?

2019-05-24 18:53:37 UTC  

so its not accurate

2019-05-24 18:53:40 UTC  

correct

2019-05-24 18:53:48 UTC  

yes, correct

2019-05-24 18:53:59 UTC  

so they are giving us pics of earth that arent accurate

2019-05-24 18:54:13 UTC  

but u trus tthey are giving u accurate evidence of space ?

2019-05-24 18:54:13 UTC  

as far as I know, anyway. lol I'm canadian and don't know my geography down there very well

2019-05-24 18:54:40 UTC  

oh, I know most pics aren't 100% accurate. They're composited.

2019-05-24 18:55:25 UTC  

that photo might have wide angle distortion to fit more in the field of view.

2019-05-24 18:55:37 UTC  

so it's not accurate to eye.

2019-05-24 18:56:06 UTC  

but I don't know what lens they're using, so I can't be sure.

2019-05-24 18:56:16 UTC  

so the people u trust arent giving us accurate evidence of space

2019-05-24 18:56:45 UTC  

so the earth isnt flat its confirmed

2019-05-24 18:56:47 UTC  

if your definition of accurate is "true to the eye" you might be expecting too much.

2019-05-24 18:56:54 UTC  

are u trusting them to give us inaccurate evidence of space ?

2019-05-24 18:57:23 UTC  

if they show us part os a sphere and florida is taking up a fourth of it i dont think that is an accurate representation of the globe at all not even close

2019-05-24 18:57:42 UTC  

they're not trying to prove the earth is a globe. they'd use a wide angle lens to fit more of the earth on camera.

2019-05-24 18:58:02 UTC  

so they are purposely not giving us an accurate representation of earth

2019-05-24 18:58:02 UTC  
2019-05-24 18:58:29 UTC  

so, the distortion is a compromise.

2019-05-24 18:58:31 UTC  

se citizen doesnt matter what u show people

2019-05-24 18:58:35 UTC  

see

2019-05-24 18:58:52 UTC  

u got no proof nasa lies that u can show people ?

2019-05-24 18:59:06 UTC  

without them having to use common sense ?

2019-05-24 18:59:07 UTC  

I'm not saying what you're saying isn't true, Jeremy. but I'm trying to look at all points of view.

2019-05-24 18:59:27 UTC  

do u trust nasa to portay space to us accurately ?

2019-05-24 18:59:48 UTC  

defining "accurately" as "true to the eye", then no.

2019-05-24 18:59:56 UTC  

so how do u trust them

2019-05-24 19:00:02 UTC  

explainw hat u trust about them

2019-05-24 19:00:12 UTC  

because using wide angle lenses doesn't mean they're lying.
