    @bobatl Polaris is gone by 1.5 deg S. Latitude. You’ve never been south of Earth’s Equator, or if so, you've never looked up.

        @Dannosuke_konri @illMakeit i think he does. Composite=fake. Why don't we have real pics of the "globe?" Footage of the rotation?

        @MaciekLenART @illMakeit composite means we don't go far enough to see the whole earth so we have to put multiple small pictures together.

        @MaciekLenART @illMakeit other probes have specific missions and it obviously wasn't part of the mission to take pictures of Earth.
