Title: Explain the Himawari-8
Post by: The Frogs Are Gay on May 03, 2018, 10:39:26 AM

Himawari-8 is a satellite that takes a picture of the earth every ten minutes and their website is here https://himawari8.nict.go.jp/

If this satellite is taking pictures of a spherical earth every ten minutes then how would the image be possibly edited from a flat state to a spherical state within less than ten minutes in that sort of image quality

Yeah it's kind of crazy. If a flat earther had sufficient understand of maths and geometry to be able to explain how they might take the images from ground cameras and translate them automatically in to a half sphere, they would have the skills to know how perspective works and how the flat earth model is complete nonsense.

The confusion is understandable, there's a small amount of editing to outline the continents so it's not 12 hours of darkness.
But yeah, this being assembled in 10 minutes with that degree of accuracy is absurd.

It is crazy, but then again..... it wouldn't be the weirdest thing we've heard here on this site.
