I did read it all, thats why I made mention of your parallel line tangent that had absolutely nothing to do with the topic at hand.
We are solely discussing whether or not it looks fake, as was my claim. It looks fake. Not discussing "could it be fake," or "a dozen ways it could it look fake and still be real."
Using my own eyes, and a lifetime of looking with them to accurately measure lengths and depths and differentiate between smooth, rough, and slippery surfaces, I've determined thatthis "photograph" is jarring and unrealistic.
I was forced to go into details about what should be obvious to anyone else with eyes, and even have a reason why it might look as fake as it does. All you did was try to go off on a tangent about optical illusions. Don't call me out for being a dick when I've already spent much more time debating this than I should have had to.
You can treat every graphic NASA puts out as accurate depiction of reality even after 40 years of self admitted doctoring, altering, interpreting, and even outright forging, but I choose not to.
