Flerf removes curved horizon from space

Originial Image
Flerf Forgery
Anotated Flerf Forgery

Fake Green Screen Claims

One common flerf forgery takes the form of

  • taking a NASA image from space
  • Using photo editing tools to remove the existing background
  • Replace the existing background with green colour
  • Claim that they found the resulting image with the green background in some leak

One way we can tell that these images are not a genuine green screen leak is by noting that the green colour in the resulting image is completely uniform - the exact same colour, no lighting differences and no wrinkles. Footage taken on a real set does not have such a uniform green in the footage.

Fake green screen added to existing image - Case 1

Flerf Forgery
Source Image forgery

Fake green screen added to existing image - Case 2

This image shows a meme where a flerf has taken two original space station images and attempted to remove the background and add a green background and then pass this off as an original image filmed in front of a green screen. The green background is completely uniform indicating that it is a digitally added element. The arrows added to the meme by User:Ttguy show where the flerf failed to completely remove with the original background.

Flerf Forgery - arrows show where flerf fails to remove original background properly

Fake green screen added to existing image - Case 3

Flerf Claim
detail in original file - circled region is what did not get completely removed by the flerf
Detail of FE meme showing where the black background was not completely removed


Source for the Green Screen Background

Space is filmed in a water tank

Flunts claim that the bottom image on their meme is a photo from NASA. They never substansiate that claim.

The Meme

The fact is that the top image is from NASA and flerf have forged the bottom image. The top image was found on a NASA web site at http://dx12.jsc.nasa.gov/gallery/images/full/DSCN0034_JPG.jpg. That link is now dead but it can be found on the Wayback Machine at https://web.archive.org/web/20090402112359/https://dx12.jsc.nasa.gov/gallery/images/full/DSCN0034_JPG.jpg


Q. Why would NASA publish the source image of their own fakery?
A. They wouldn't. This image is the work of some flatard douche bag. Obviously.

The Source for the forgery

Manipulation of Blue Origin Video

Forgery

The image is from Flight 3: GH2 Vent Cam from May 10 2016. Yes the footage is fish eye lens. And yes you can apply a de-fish filter to it. But Flerfs defish this footage to hell and then claim it shows no curve.

Flerf Removes Curve From Horizon


We can see curved horizon in this image of the Causeway from the air

This FE meme is based on the image above but for some reason the horizon on this version is flat.
