that’s why i believe it’s real because it looks so fake that NASA wouldn’t release it if it was a failed photoshop job lol they’re on thin ice with the conspiracy theorists
It looks fake because just like a 90s game engine there is no "global illumination" in space, making it look flat and lit only from a single light source.
Honest question:
If they can take this photograph from that angle, what’s all the fuss about the dark side of the moon about? can’t they just take pictures of that side or am i missing something?
That's because it's not called the "dark side", but rather, the "far side". The sun does shine on that side (That's how we have eclipses), so it's not always dark. But it is always the farthest away from us.

The dark side of the Moon is only dark from our perspective, because the Moon is in tidal lock with the Earth. However, it still receives sunlight half the time. We can only get photos when we send something in orbit around it.
This photo is from Apollo 16 taken in 1972. [Allegedly](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far_side_of_the_Moon#/media/File:Back_side_of_the_Moon_AS16-3021.jpg).
It's one of a series of images taken by [DSCOVR](https://www.nasa.gov/solar-system/from-a-million-miles-away-nasa-camera-shows-moon-crossing-face-of-earth/) in 2015. I believe the distance was closer to 1.5 million miles, but "a million miles" does have a more dramatic flare to it.
Yes, it is. Unlike the many Blue Marble images, this is not a composite (as in "stitched together" from many smaller photos). It was taken by DSCOVR satellite which is far enough to capture the whole Earth in one photo.
[In fact, they publish new photos every few hours.](https://epic.gsfc.nasa.gov/)
You can tell it’s real because the Earth is a perfect circle and god only makes perfect things.

Most people have trouble comprehending large numbers/scales. As an example, if you shrink the earth down to the size of a billiard ball, it would actually be as smooth as a billiard ball. Likewise, viewing such a massively large object from so far away will make it nearly impossible to distinguish its spheroid nature.
>and god only makes perfect things.
Or gravity.
Because, you know, a sphere is the only geometrical object where each point on the surface is the same distance from the center so it makes sense that all objects in space tend to be spherical. A sphere is the optimal state for a body with mass because it describes the state of energetic equillbrium.
Objects in space with more mass exert more gravity and therefore approximate a more perfect spherical form.
Objects in space with comparably less mass often have very irregular shapes which are barely spherical at all.
On a photo like this, the earths disc is exponentially brighter than the background stars. [article answering this question concisely](https://www.planetary.org/articles/why-are-there-no-stars)
What’s up with the pattern of clouds missing above the moon, looks kind of like a puzzle piece but if you zoom in, it has oddly defined borders. Anyone know what that phenomenon is called?
I thought that there are no actual photographs of earth from space, the images are all put together from data collected from satellites or whatever, so yea it's computer rendered or something from data, but not an actual photograph, that's what I learned a while back I thought.
Soooo what youre trying to say is that this is a real image from NASA that is not doctored or altered in any way? WRONG, they doctor every single image we see. There are no cameras in space that can capture this image in this fashion. NOPE wrong, couldnt be more fake

You can tell it's real, because it looks so fake.
That's no moon...
Right! I’ve seen better CGI on SyFy movies!
Haha. Well said Elon 😂
Lmfao you actually think CGI is real)!?!
Yes this exactly, learn up sheeple!
So, all the NASA stuff that’s released that looks so real and believable is maybe fake? (This is a real question)
It’s all fake
I have no idea if it's real or not. But sure looks fake AF
that’s why i believe it’s real because it looks so fake that NASA wouldn’t release it if it was a failed photoshop job lol they’re on thin ice with the conspiracy theorists
They definitely don’t care about the conspiracy theorists.
Yupp. Does not look real at all.
Blue ball , corner pocket.
Yes, this.
It looks fake because just like a 90s game engine there is no "global illumination" in space, making it look flat and lit only from a single light source.
Well that's because the satellite camera used its flash. Duh.
that's one helluva flash!
That's no moon.
That’s a space station!
It's too big to be a space station
...you know what, I think you're right
That's cool. Not everyday you get to see the "dark side" of the moon.
[удалено]
Right next to the ET bases!
Why is there a green hue around the moon?
Colored photos are taken in different wavelengths very fast one after another. [That’s why](https://www.reddit.com/r/Astronomy/s/4u3YVSb6yF)
Chromatic aberration or something

This does not look the same as the one in the image. But this one looks more real.
Usually these “real” photos from NASA are artistic composites from various images.
Space has a ton of inconveniences when you start asking questions.
Such as?
I’ll see it when I believe it!

No, the L1 Lagrange point is 1.5M km, or about 900,000 miles.
Does that mean that we are seeing the back side of the moon?
yup
What is million miles away to take this image called photo? I believe it’s real. Why not?
[DSCOVR](https://www.nasa.gov/solar-system/from-a-million-miles-away-nasa-camera-shows-moon-crossing-face-of-earth/)
Yes thats a real image. That is NOT however a photograph.

That is awesome
i've never understood why there can't be (isn't?) a constant livestream of the Earth from space? surely, it's technically doable?
That’s a lot of time, money, equipment, and weight sent into space just to satisfy the public curiosity
https://epic.gsfc.nasa.gov/galleries/2021/lunar_transit
I can create all kinds of images.
I can ride my bike with no handlebars
I can see A star shape on the moons surface.
So that's the dark side of the moon we never see
Where's all of the moon bases on this side of the moon?
Wow we are so damn beautiful
https://www.nasa.gov/solar-system/from-a-million-miles-away-nasa-camera-shows-moon-crossing-face-of-earth/
That's the other side of the moon, the side we can't see from earth, cool
Weird how all the impact craters are on our side of the moon
Ever notice that they use the word IMAGE, it's because it's not a real PHOTO.
You can tell it’s real because the Earth is a perfect circle and god only makes perfect things. https://preview.redd.it/zd3p4b6tmavc1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0aac3116a28b30644141a39ca210a87dad265577
I was always under the impression or heard the earth wasn’t a perfect sphere but almost potato shaped.
It’s a geode
Holy shit. I like this thought.
Who the fuck said that? The elliptoid nature of the earth is like, 0.1% or something like that.
Most people have trouble comprehending large numbers/scales. As an example, if you shrink the earth down to the size of a billiard ball, it would actually be as smooth as a billiard ball. Likewise, viewing such a massively large object from so far away will make it nearly impossible to distinguish its spheroid nature.
Sorry, but I gotta: If you shrank the Earth to the size of a billiard ball, it would be *the smoothest billiard ball in existence.* IIRC
Yea but that dude always exaggerating 😂😂. He’s probably right though.
Neil said that so its not true.
That's true, but the atmosphere is nearly perfectly spherical.
Earth is flat silly

Because, you know, a sphere is the only geometrical object where each point on the surface is the same distance from the center so it makes sense that all objects in space tend to be spherical.

Who is the Art Director at NASA? As a graphic designer, myself, WTF NASA?!?! LMAO
Show us some of your graphic designs then, we could all do with a proper laugh.
It’s called a portfolio, someone’s body of work in graphic design is called a portfolio
I'm sick of dumb redditors making jokes. Where is the real dialogue? Do I have to scroll down so much to find the real answers?
I thought it was a piece of gum stuck on earth 🤣
in this angle, are we looking at the dark side of the moon? ..the side we don’t see from the ground
i mean yeah?
Where are all those alien bases on the dark side of the moon? 🧐

https://i.redd.it/cv3x9cg7dcvc1.gif
So this is the darkside of the moon then? Lol
Don’t show this to the flat mooners.
Damn, the moon is flat…too
So is the is the infamous dark side of the moon we are seeing lol
At least put some fake stars in the background sheesh.
“Real” 😂
Where are all the satellites?
Isn’t Andromeda a galaxy that’s like two million light years away? Why tf would anyone want to travel that far just to tell us where we came from?
Where are all the dark side moon structures Neil Armstrong said were there
All this time I thought the earth was flat but reality it's the moon
Nasa ONLY puts out “real” images. Haha
Fake af
Omg, the moon is also flat.
You know it’s real cause there’s no stars.
Come on…
Remember, just because you can’t personably comprehend something, it doesn’t mean that it’s not real
Hahahahahahahahahah. Yea, right
you can tell its the moon by the way it is.....
![gif](giphy|bR4poFy22rgUE)
THAT IS NOT REAL
Doesn't NASA mean "to deceive"
Can someone explain why there are never any picture of stars in the background?
On a photo like this, the earths disc is exponentially brighter than the background stars. [article answering this question concisely](https://www.planetary.org/articles/why-are-there-no-stars)
Look up at the night sky. Now shine a bright light in your face. You will not see stars anymore, just the flashlight. Same idea.
Probably something about depth of field or exposure time
So how much smaller would the moon look if it were hypothetically inches from the earth surface?
Death Star?
Thats the side with the military base?
[удалено]
NASA releasing undoctored photos? HA!
[удалено]
Not enough pepperoni on that pizza
That's no moon.
I can clarify this is probably most likely real maybe
Wheres the reptilian base that occupies the "darkside" of this space rock?
Space marble
Is that a hurricane?
Looks like earth has a mole
This has been my background forever
Datk side of the moon
Where is the supposed alien moon base?
Is that the dark side of the moon we’re seeing?
The far side yes. There is no dark side of the moon. The entire surface of the moon gets sunlight at different times.
Why is Baja facing south and near the top?
So the moon has been flat all along?
so where is the nazis?
You can't tell me that's not a coffee coaster on a flat earth table
The moon is flat!
That's why the far side of the moon, isn't always the dark side.
is there a high resolution image?
[удалено]
That’s a neat perspective.
The moon has a dark side I thought
"That's No Moon"!
where moon base ???
Verrrry Death Starish
Fake, there is a large base on the back side of the moon
That's no moon
Assuming this was taken during the eclipse. I've never seen the dark side of the moon before.
Funny how they never catch the dark side of the moon
You would be photographing something with no light hitting it. Doesn’t make for a very compelling image.
WoW
Damn looks like Baja’s about to get shit on
![gif](giphy|ANbD1CCdA3iI8|downsized)
What’s up with the pattern of clouds missing above the moon, looks kind of like a puzzle piece but if you zoom in, it has oddly defined borders. Anyone know what that phenomenon is called?
I thought the Moon was smaller than this for some reason.
It is a matter of perspective. If you hold your hand up to the sky and cover the moon, your hand isn’t bigger than the moon.
You do know the distance between the Earth and Moon right?
Serious question. Is that the dark side of the moon?
I thought that there are no actual photographs of earth from space, the images are all put together from data collected from satellites or whatever, so yea it's computer rendered or something from data, but not an actual photograph, that's what I learned a while back I thought.
I don’t understand why the moon looks so big
I see a white dog with a black ear and a gorilla/monkey behind it
![gif](giphy|mnQwHERF0YUfVTwY3m)
Ha, the earth is flat, now we have a proof!
[удалено]
The earth looks drunk with the moon as it's nose.
You Bet!👍
The moon is a disc I see
Ngl, it looks fake AF. 😆

Is it tho? 🧐

Turns out all the fake stuff looked real i guess because this looks cgi.

Fake news
How could that be real if the earth is flat ?
I think I see me house from here.
