You can't tell the difference between a "genuine" photo and a photo of a model?

I do not need to. The truth does not "tell the difference".

The original picture is that of a model. Your readiness to accept it as a "genuine" NASA photo only proves how successful the globularist propaganda has become.

Actually, you presented it as a photo that you took, not NASA.

Being a moderator, I would expect you yourself not to troll.

I suggest you grab a pair of binoculars and look out your backyard.

The picture before I modified it was of a model which Crustinator has insisted was "genuine".

I don't have one. I altered this picture of a model a few years ago[/img]

No that is clearly a genuine picture unless you can post evidence of you altering it.

Pointing out the public's over-reaching desire to embrace space photos as genuine is not trolling. It is only further evidence that "proof" offered at the altar of science need not be compelling to be swallowed wholesale by people eager to believe it.

Well done Ski. I think you've more than proved your point. If they don't see it, I can only classify it as straight-out denial.
I saw a slight haze in the hotel bathroom this morning after I took a shower, have I discovered a new planet?

Almost like the straight-out denial that FEs have about satellites and their absolute unwillingness to use Heavens Above to observe satellites passing over their location.

All he showed is that models can be photographed in such a way as to make them look real, which is hardly a new revelation. He did nothing to prove that the photographs of the ISS taken by numerous amateur astronomers are fake. And if you can't see that, well...I can only classify it as straight-out stupidity.
How dare you have the audacity to demand my deposition. I've never even heard of you.

He never showed that the ISS photographs taken by amateur astronomers were faked, nor has he caused any reasonable doubt to be introduced.

Well played my ass, Sky.

Ski demonstrated his point well. It was very well played. Don't be bitter and pout because he didn't support every single point possibly relevant to the topic.

Just because you have lost the sacred ability to doubt, do not cast aspersion on those who can.

If any FE'er would just spend 100$ on a proper telescope and observe the sky for a night, trying to trace the trajectories of those hundreds of obviously fake satellites and the ISS, I wonder what they'd find?

Has anybody tried yet?

Go look up the NASA site that was linked and find the supposed trajectory of the ISS. Align your telescope properly and try to find the ISS where they say it should be, document your findings (write positions you point your telescope at down and such), take pictures, and post up your findings here. I am curious to see the result.

I would try this, but I don't have a telescope, can't really afford one and if I did find one post pictures with it, you'd claim they were faked. This is the only way to find out!

(Note, documenting it in high detail is very necessary, or we would just be able to claim that you weren't looking the right place!)

Irrelevant.  You claimed that you were the source of the photo, not NASA or Crustinator.
