so while climate change is bad and real, what’s actually going on here is that cameras in the first photo weren’t good at capturing light and details, so we needed to use programs to artificially boost light and color levels. the second photo is how it’s always looked.

It’s also cause the raw photo SD cards are still on the shuttle. I’d say wait till they are back on earth for higher quality photos to start popping up

To clarify: It’s mostly just the difference between film and digital. The 1972 photo was processed for high contrast and saturation to look good in magazines, while the modern ones are raw scientific images calibrated for precise data rather than aesthetics. TLDR: its a sensor change, not the Earth actually getting dimmer

Because they blindly believe that some dickhead who posts “oh look the picture is duller than before therefore climate change xyz” like an echo chamber and not once think if theres any other reason why the earth looks different. Lack of critical thinking means they are an idiot in my experience.
