    I’d like to ask permission to post these photos to our website MindServeClimate.org. The site is in support of my efforts as a presenter of An Inconvenient Truth.

    We have a section of NASA photos for download and these would make an excellent addition.

    Please advise. Thank you.

    Jerry

    Unfortunately, the very first photo is so obviously faked as to cast a pall of suspicion over the rest.

    Crescent Earth: Check

    Brilliant flash of sunlight from behind edge of Earth: Check.

    Brilliant flash of sunlight from behind edge of crescent earth: Impossible.

    Nice try, whomever it was who combined or cooked or whatever it was they did to make this one, but sunlight peeking just over the horizon of a celestial body ain’t never gonna bend around and illuminate the far side of that selfsame celestial body to create the effect depicted.

    Sigh.

    Well Jerry Gasche you could always make your request at a more appropriate point further up the link chain.
