" The simple answer is that there are TONS of photos of the earth from space dating back from the 1960's. You just think they're all fake..." NASA admitted they are all fake here as well as all over the internet...
please do some actual research:
NASA GUY WHO CREATED EARTH IMAGES FOR THE IPHONE ADMITS THEY ARE NOT REAL
https://qz.com/192700/the-guy-who-created-iphones-earth-image-explains-why-he-needed-to-fake-it/
From the article:
"As realistic as it looks, the image is a composite of four months of light data collected in 2,300 km (1,429 mi) wide bands as NASA’s Terra satellite orbited from pole to pole, and the earth rotated beneath it.
That data was then stitched together and applied to the surface of a digital ball, then modified in Photoshop..."
Which begs a question... how did the "blue marble earth" image from Apollo 11 get created? It looks exactly like the iPhone photoshops!

From the article on lunar photography... Apollo 17 "photograph" of the earth. Again not real.
"This full-disk view (from Apollo 17) encompasses much of the South Atlantic Ocean, virtually all the Indian Ocean, Antarctica, Africa, a part of Asia, and, on the horizon, Indonesia and the western edge of Australia."
LOL.
NASA admitted they are all fake here as well as all over the internet... lol...sure they did. This is just you once again not understanding technology.
Number 1 any shot from a NEAR satellite isn't going to be able to take in the whole earth. They're way too close. Imagine putting your camera right next to an orange and trying to take a picture. You're going to only get a section of the orange. Luckily you can take several pictures an combine them. NO mystery. Just you not realizing the size of the earth and the orbit of MOST satellites.
However there are now at least two satellites that are FAR out there and they can and do send regular pictures of the whole earth from space. EPIC is one of the satellites.
The shot of the earth, the big blue marble, is from one of the Apollo missions..far enough out to get the shot.
Do you see what you're doing? You reject rational explanations in order to promulgate irrational conspiracy theories. You're not even putting any type of critical thinking or original thought. You're simply regurgitating other people's nutty ideas.
