You thinking the pictures of earth are not CGI doesn't mean they aren't.

And just because you think the pictures of earth are CGI doesn't mean they are either.

Its logical to think that if some have been proven frauds then the others MIGHT be as well.

Please show these "pictures of earth" that "have been proven frauds".
NASA has stated that at least one "Blue Marble" was generated from data collected over months by LEO satellites, that does not make it a fraud.

I've seen pictures of the ISS night and day. The day one you can see it's not in space. The blue sky is still behind it. You don't know how many miles it is up there. Only what you've been told.

Here is one video in broad daylight:

STS-135 (Atlantis) and ISS in broad daylight - 7/17/11, Astronomy Live

Why do you claim that, "The blue sky is still behind it"? Do you know why the sky is blue and why it is a darker shade of blue overhead?

One satellite crashed in Brazil I think it was. The local didn't know what it was. Pictures are on line. Satellite drone. There's a number on it to call and NASA has a team that goes and gets them. There's a balloon attach to it.
It might catch and follow the wind channel and it would carry it all over is my guess but not sure.

Yes,  believe it or not the image showing on the opening scene is a satellite, Echo 2, see Project Echo but the video is not about a "balloon satellite", but a "Google Loon", see Project Loon' internet balloon lands in the Amazon forest.

Helium Balloon and Satellite Crash To Earth in Brazil - NASA? Shaking My Head Productions

So, no it was not a "Satellite Crash To Earth in Brazil".

But here are some pieces of the early US Skylab that crashed into the southern part of Western Australia between Esperance and Balladonia.

Part of oxygen tank from Skylab space station that crashed near Esperance, Western Australia in the early hours of July 12, 1979, WA time

A bit more of Skylab in the Power House Museum, Sydney, Australia.

Plenty of proof out there. Debunking NASA pictures right and left. I'm not your baby sitter. You look it up for yourself or don't.
  Your video clearly shows it in the sky. Jeez

We need specific sources of every debunked photograph with explanations explaining how they are CGI along with the methods used.

That sounds like great idea. Lets do it. Are you going to fund me for the next few months to spend my time collecting all of the evidence on the internet, examine original evidence, and provide assessments and sources and references on all of that for our Wiki?

Nope it was your side's claim. I don't have to pay a dime, you need to provide evidence for your claim.

By God does he need to hold your hand and read things to you as well? It's elementary dear Watson. He found out by searching. You can't do that simple thing? I guess repeating is your thing huh?

Photoshopping was around long before you got your hands on it. What we get is things that are already out of date as far as they are concerned.  Always a step a head.
  The blue sky was behind it too.
  I don't believe it was ever in space or meant to be. (Brazil one or both rather)
   Unless you KNEW how big the satellite actually was you couldn't  know the distant. Especially the number of miles you proclaim.  Feet yes prehappens. But miles....naa.

Are you sure you cannot compute the distance? Rowbotham did exactly this in EnaG to establish the distance of the sun, but he only used 2 observations, and claimed it was good.
Are you suggesting he was wrong and didnt know what he was doing?

Yes I'm suggesting he was wrong. Why would you just believe someone without question? You're a human being. Your brain is your tool. You are the same as he.

This isn't about Photoshop. It's about CGI. CGI wasn't even remotely a thing until the 80's.

The blue sky was behind it too.

Are you sure? I told you otherwise, and posed a question directly related to that conclusion that you didn't answer.

Unless you KNEW how big the satellite actually was you couldn't know the distant. Especially the number of miles you proclaim. Feet yes prehappens. But miles....naa.

First, the idea is to get a friend to take a second reading.
Second, the width of the ISS is well-established.
Third, have you any understanding of units at all? If you have the altitude in feet, then you can get it in miles simply by dividing by 5,280.

Have you even seen the original photos? Photoshopped.
  What blue sky in front of ISS proof did you tell me about? What question are you referring to? Go fine the picture for yourself. I thought you'd seen it.
  The width of the ISS is well established to who? You? Lol. But you believe in anything. I'll wait for real proof if you don't mind.
    I've seen these "satellites" blow off their straight path then straighten back up. I've showed people this and they're like wtf.
  You stick to your indoctrination and I'll just stick to what I see. Doesn't really make a difference anyhow does it.

Please tell me of proof of orbital flight. Please don't repeat hearsay that can't be proven. Thanks

Personal observation. Seeing the ISS twice in one evening, exactly at the times predicted, with the time between the two sightings (wherein it crossed the sky in the same direction each time) exactly as per the published orbit time.

It crossed my sky from SW to SE both times. How would it get from the SE of my sky that it left on the first pass, to get back to the SW, without changing direction, and having me or someone else seeing it going the 'wrong' way, other than by going around a globe?

Folks with better cameras than I have imaged the ISS in transit across the sun and moon.

Even from the first orbital craft, Sputnik, amateur and professional alike were monitoring its path and finding that it could only be an orbital craft. It passes over, disappears out of range, then appears from the opposite horizon after an hour or two.

You are assuming it's the same satellite. I  see two in the sky at the same time every morning. And sometimes I look with binoculars and I truly thinks it's drones. Then there's the one in Brazil that crashed.

The way of tackling FE is to show the evidence for the globe, obviously some will dismiss that or call it fake, there's nothing you can do about that.

70+ years of orbital spaceflight. That does it for me. Why look for a curve from ground level when the presence of 70 years' worth of orbital satellites shows it beyond all doubt?

And, in other news, SpaceX have deployed ANOTHER orbital satellite, successfully bringing the first stage back to a controlled landing on their ocean-going barge.

Are you talking about the CGI pictures that have already been debunked?

Where have they been debunked?

Internet is full of NASA pictures shown to be fake. YouTube is littered with it. SEX was written is the clouds in one. Straight off NASA site. NASA took it down afterwards. And another showed same clouds copied and placed throughout the globe picture.

Ok let me be more specific.

Which photos have been debunked and where. Please provide specific sources for your claim.

YouTube it. Google it. There are a whole world of websites dedicated to that purpose. We have several such examples in The Conspiracy section of our Wiki.

That kind of evidence doesn't fly here remember?

We need specific sources of every debunked photograph with explanations explaining how they are CGI along with the methods used.

The debunking is there you just can't get your head out of NASA's lap to see it.

Wrong.

Imagine something closer. Imagine a pole in a field. You are in one corner of the field and your friend is in another, 100 metres away. You have a straight line marked on the ground between you. You measure pole at a bearing of 60 degrees from you (relative to the line between you and your friend), and your friend measures 55 degrees. You don't know the size or width of the pole.

And yet, you can calculate the distance to the pole from either of you - or, indeed, from any point on the line - with ease.

Agree or disagree?

I don't see how this would tell you the miles of a orbiting satellite. The location in the sky maybe but all you need is eyes for that. Maybe I'm just not getting it. I won't give to much of an opinion about it because I haven't tried it yet.

Really? Even the pictures of Earth that predated CGI?

The day one you can see it's not in space. The blue sky is still behind it.

Funny thing, the blue sky is actually in front of it. How blue was the ISS in the picture?

One satellite crashed in Brazil I think it was. The local didn't know what it was. Pictures are on line. Satellite drone. There's a number on it to call and NASA has a team that goes and gets them. There's a balloon attach to it.

Sounds like it was never in space, was never intended to get to space, and NASA won't tell you that it was in space.

It would not tell you how many miles or exactly how far. You can't tell how far a plane is in the air only the position of where it's at. Not how far. I believe it's a satellite drone. Check out the picture of the one at day and the Brazilian one. Pretty cool stuff.

But, being a smart person, you do understand how easy it would be to measure it for yourself, right?

You look at it and you measure the angle to it. Your friend a decent distance away does the same at the same time. And, for good measure, one more friend a decent distance from both of you does so too.

It is then a matter of ease to triangulate its position.

No. There's plenty of proof of orbital flight which does not rely on pictures.

As we all know, there are thousands of photos taken from space that have nothing to do with CGI, with photoshop, with compositing, with any kind of manipulation.

But let's come at it from another angle: when we look in the sky at where we are told the ISS will appear, there is something there. Those with high-powered zoom lenses can make out a shape matching what we're told the ISS looks like - but for the rest of us, all we see is a dot.

Still, that's probably enough.

Question is, even if we don't believe in the ISS, there is something there, seemingly orbiting at 250 miles above the surface of the earth.

So, dear flat earther, what is it?

You thinking the pictures of earth are not CGI doesn't mean they aren't. Its logical to think that if some have been proven frauds then the others MIGHT be as well.

I believe his argument is that if there is a bulge to the earth, because of centripetal acceleration, then naturally the water should have gone to the equator since that is easier to move than the land.

There's a bulge because as the earth cooled it was spinning, the centripetal force made the earth bulge slightly.
But at that stage of the earth's history there was no water, the crust was just cooling molten rock.
I haven't watched the rest of the video but the first point is pretty silly and shows no understanding of the theories about the history of the earth's formation.
He seems to imagine an earth as it is now bulging because of the centripetal force, that isn't what happened.

Your just repeating stuff you were told. In the video he's showing you what is proven. Prove that the molting ball cooled, etc etc. Hear say does not apply in court and should not apply in science.
  FEers talk about what you yourself can prove while globe believers talk about things that we can't prove then have the nerve to say we got no proof. Crazy
