NASA Space Images Are Often Faked

 

Latest post at Substack regarding NASA faking space images.

"Fast forward to 2024 and the CGI has gotten to the point of hyper-realism as seen in such films such as The Lord of Rings, Avatar, and a host of sci-fi films and TV shows.  Having a background in photography and CGI I think I am well versed in spotting what is real and what is not.  And much coming out of NASA and the Jet Propulsion Lab (JPL) of late is obviously fake.  Have you seen the NASA image of North America much larger than its actual size?  Or of North America totally in green with no desert areas or snow capped mountains?  It’s all out there.  I fail to understand why with the sophistication of cameras and software to transmit pictures back to earth, they would resort to this nonsense."

Manned Maneuvering Unit Revisited

 

The 40th year anniversary in 2024.

New issues discovered.  Posted at Substack.

"NASA gets away with a lot.  Mainly due to a complaint, unquestioning science and technology media.  If America’s premier space agency chooses to deceive the public they can. And do.  I can tell from my own research experience that NASA documents often contradict their press releases and in turn, contradict the articles by science based journalists.  It is as if these journalists are not reading the source documents.  Actually, their articles often resemble PR releases for NASA."

This is probably one of the more confusing NASA space stories one can encounter.  It was reported in August of 2018 that there was an oxygen leak on the International Space Station (ISS).  The  source was not a hull breach but a 2mm hole in a docked Soyuz MS-09 spacecraft.  Initially it was thought to be a micro meteor.  Roscosmos, the Russian equivalent of NASA, concluded it was not an external impact of a micro meteoroid but a drilled hole done internally. It’s never been determined when this was done.
