Imagine the leaps and bounds a person’s brain would have to take in order to see these and decide to believe they are all convincingly faked by various vfx artists working for different governments and agencies. To believe that a global conspiracy could be so well organized and consistent that the pretend round Earth looks the same in footage from the 50’s and 60’s as it does in today’s satellite imagery, or that the pretend round Earth measures and behaves in a way that Eratosthenes’ calculated 2200 years ago.
