Tech Crunch reports that NASA has produced a video from images made by its Deep Space Climate Observatory. The spacecraft is in a Lissajous orbit around the Sun–Earth L1 Lagrange point, from which the sunlit side of the Earth can always be seen. The 167-second video (warning: has narration) was made from images collected over the course of a year.

    There are comments on the TechCrunch site accusing NASA of faking this. Can't we all just accept the moon landing kool-aid and get on with our blissful ignorance? /sarcasm

    The other comments wanting NASA to edit the video so it is "smoother" are ridiculous as well. Who wants NASA to edit video so more people can claim that NASA edited their videos?

    Nice troll, but here is 100% proof that NASA landed men on the moon, [youtube.com] and NASA does not fake any of their images. [sli.mg]
