Neil DeGrasse Tyson claims earths curvature cannot be seen even from 128,000 feet. He is an astrophysicist and expert. He also agrees with his colleague. In an interview... "...Nobel laureate in physics who says the International Space Station is an orbital turkey. This person says no important science has come of it, almost no science at all, and further says that - this person would say that the whole manned space flight program, which is enormously expensive, has produced nothing of scientific value. ..."And by the way, he's a friend. His name is Steven Weinberg. He and I went to the same high school, the Bronx High School of Science here in New York City. And so we've talked about this and other topics. He is right. Not much science has come out of this. But that's not why we did it in the first place, so therefore I cannot fault it." The 'outer space' narrative is full of contradictions, whatever is really going on.
