The Sun is behind the Earth, illuminating a thin crescent. This low-light shot, taken by Reid Wiseman using a Nikon D5, shows auroras over the poles, city lights, and the glow of the atmosphere.

And yes, there are stars!

I had never understood why that happened, until now.

The preview in the post is rotated to the “correct” orientation.

Even the thumbnails for its music-only Youtube uploads evoke the same, too!

They won't ever care about any proof. If some proof could convince them, it would have already, there are tons of them.

Anything that contradicts their model is simply labeled as "fake". AI will probably make it worse.

I hadn't seen the CSA one, I'll set that one up on my wall display. The fan-made one seems to have the wrong data (it's significantly ahead of where the mission actually is in both MET and distance) at least on my machines.
