what context do u need
hello
I am. you're saying there's too much landmass visible.
do u think the gulf of mexico florida and a small piece of the atlantic is a quarter of the globe
certainly not
so u think thats a real pic
accurate
is that pic accurate
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?
so its not accurate
correct
yes, correct
so they are giving us pics of earth that arent accurate
but u trus tthey are giving u accurate evidence of space ?
as far as I know, anyway. lol I'm canadian and don't know my geography down there very well
oh, I know most pics aren't 100% accurate. They're composited.
that photo might have wide angle distortion to fit more in the field of view.
so it's not accurate to eye.
but I don't know what lens they're using, so I can't be sure.
so the people u trust arent giving us accurate evidence of space
if your definition of accurate is "true to the eye" you might be expecting too much.
are u trusting them to give us inaccurate evidence of space ?
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
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.
so they are purposely not giving us an accurate representation of earth
so, the distortion is a compromise.
se citizen doesnt matter what u show people
see
u got no proof nasa lies that u can show people ?
without them having to use common sense ?
I'm not saying what you're saying isn't true, Jeremy. but I'm trying to look at all points of view.
do u trust nasa to portay space to us accurately ?
defining "accurately" as "true to the eye", then no.
so how do u trust them
explainw hat u trust about them
because using wide angle lenses doesn't mean they're lying.
ok explain how u trust them
I can understand why they'd use them.
i can undertand why they use them as well
