I can see why no one trusts NASA...
The following video is taken from the ISS by the ESA (not NASA) great view yet something bothers me...
When I watch clouds outside even in a light wind, they are constantly changing in seconds and noticably so...
Yet as far as I can tell in this video the clouds are always stationary... like its a still photo. And they are visible long enough that we should be able to see SOME drastic change especially the cumulus thunder clouds which expand rapidly

Maybe it really IS all a hoax :P

I think it's a question of size.
When we see clouds changing, how much do they change in 20 seconds? Do they change 1 km in size or position? What's the size of 1 km on those images from orbit?

I agree in MOST cases that it might be hard to see a change but there are many space videos over storms... and storms have speeds of several hundred miles per hour
Here in Vegas a storm will move in in seconds. So there should be at least SOME scenes showing fast moving storms
Back in Canada at the lake I was standing on the dock... clear sky. I looked up over the lake and saw a wall of water.. I ran up to the cottage... but the wall over took me and a minute later it was clear skies again

It is probably a matter of distance and perspective but we never see clouds moving from space shots so it makes it hard to convince the regular peeps that they are real images :P
I bring this up because I run into this all the time

It's hard to convince the "regular peeps" because they do not want to think, they want easy answers, preferably on a video, so they do not have the trouble of reading. :)
