Photos by NASA (100 pics)

Buzz Lightyear
Nasa is so cool

nice pics!

Look at the capsule reentry burn ...

funny isn't it ? every picture of space nasa releases there are never any stars.

You do realize there has been no advancement in jet propulsion in over 75 years? Man went to the moon in 1967 and they did it on technology that was already 20 years old...

The F-22 Raptor is a +20 year old design, for example. It's taken over two decades of development before the plane ever made it to government approval and therefore, production.

awesome. I hope I will be still alive when space travelling becomes available to an average man.

there will be an "elevator" someday to get to the space station..

astroboy - it is an issue of exposure. When you take a picture of something big and bright in the foreground the items in background don't show up.

Awesome technology. Receive a hand, America.

no it isn't fuzzy. quit trying to be clever and just put up another one of your damn smileys.

Wow astroboy... sounds like you really know what you're talking about! Oh wait, you didn't actually explain anything did you.

What 2fuzzy's talking about should be glaringly obvious (pun intended) to anyone that's seen the night sky in the city vs the country. Heck, just use any old camera to look at the horizon during twilight and shift slightly up or down and you'll see how much of the sky you can see change depending on the focus.

Thanks Peter, and not that this will help... but if he will not listen to others who do know what they are talking about a quick Google shows what NASA has to say about it.

Now lets all wait for astroboy to apologize.

Yeah 2fuzzy, it's pretty darn simple unless one is a conspiracy nut like our astroboy must be. You take any picture, anywhere outside at night, with bright lights nearby and there won't be any stars in it. The bright lights cause an overexposure and block out the camera's ability to capture the tiny stars.

But those who want to believe the government is falsifying space evidence will believe the nuts who claim foul.

I suppose NASA "forgot" to add in the stars in every picture they've taken. It just slipped their minds I guess. hahaha

It's the same nuts who claim the shadows on the moon are fake because shadows should all be aiming in the same direction. But look outside on any bright day and one will see that shadows don't do that. They aim in many different directions. Always away from the light source, but not in the exact same direction.

They sound like they make logical sense enough to sucker-in those who aren't thinking for themselves and love the idea of catching the government's "attempts" at fooling us. But any short and quick study on these topics will reveal that astroboy and his cohorts are only looking the fools themselves.

basic light theory of photograhic principles is all.

This is one of my favorite conspiracy fails
