why is there no photos of the earth from space? this is just a cgi composite, how can you believe nasa when they said we "went" to the moon in the 1960s but all of a sudden can't now. i'm not saying that the earth is flat or round, in just saying we have no idea what we are on. i want one of you guys to show me some evidence that it is infact round

We see composites because it's easier to make a lenses can can only see a tiny corner of the earth at a time. Imagine trying to take a picture of the floor in your room while holding a camera face down only a foot or two off the ground.
"This composite image of southern Africa and the surrounding oceans was captured by six orbits of the NASA/NOAA Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership spacecraft on April 9, 2015, by the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) instrument. Tropical Cyclone Joalane can be seen over the Indian Ocean. Winds, tides and density differences constantly stir the oceans while phytoplankton continually grow and die. Orbiting radiometers such as VIIRS allows scientists to track this variability over time and contribute to better understanding of ocean processes that are beneficial to human survival on Earth. The image was created by the Ocean Biology Processing Group at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland."

Imagine knowing nothing---like truly nothing at all---about optics, photography or mechanics.

I actually prefer deep space images to composite images, because no matter what a composite image is "cheating" due to artistic interpretation. That's why I posted a series of single-shot images taken by spacecraft launched by different world powers over the course of decades.

This is Earth as seen from the ESA Rosetta probe, launched to a comet in 2004.

How do you maintain a conspiracy between the governments of the United States, Russia, China, Japan and the European Union when they are all powers that have at various points rivaled or hated each other?

And in such a scenario, surely the 533 people who have been to orbit are co-conspirators as well. Okay. What's the point of constantly expanding this conspiracy? A decade from now there may need to be 10,000 trained liars.
