I originaly wrote this post on “explain to me like am five” community. But it looks like i was banned from there because of that, despite having multiple answers on that post. So now im posting here to se if we can have open discusion here.

A couple of years ago i heard somwhere that there is no single photo of earth that is real. And i thought to myself wait i can check that emidietly.

So i went on google and was shocked that if you lookup closer realy every single one looks obviusly fake!

Today when i look at photos on the internet they still all look obviusly fake to me. There is not even a discusion about it.

So why do you think that is?

Is it that earth looks different than they are telling us or is it that there are no photos because nobody has ever been to space. Or meaby they do it on purpose for some reason? I have one theory in mind, but would like to hear what you think…

    /s indeed, but you did remind me of a cool image, above: the Earth (and the Moon) not only from space, but from the orbit of Mars!

    And, below, the Earth as seen from Mars’ surface:

    It’s the the tiny white dot, just left and up from centre.
