Who does this
400 km?
The ISS orbits at an altitude between 360-440 km
The generally accepted “border” between space and earth is the Karman line which is only about 100km up
People are complaining about pics from the ISS? I thought they must be talking about Mars or something. ISS pics are usually amazing.
Even the Mars pics are great these days. There are some awesome photos over at [email protected].

Texas is nearly 4,000 miles tall. We just hang out on the surface.
There was an unfortunate overwriting incident:
The Apollo 11 missing tapes were those that were recorded from Apollo 11’s slow-scan television (SSTV) telecast in its raw format on telemetry data tape at the time of the first Moon landing in 1969 and subsequently lost.
While going 17000km/h.
Meanwhile the perseverance rover sending back incredible quality footage of its landing
I was going to say, forget 400km, try 8.5 light minutes lol
Is 400 km a lot? 🤷♀️ I’m american…
Edit: thank yall, I was being cheeky
It’s 200 km from Las Vegas to Los Angeles. The moon is 400.000 km away
Your fancy decimal/comma swapping sure does make this seem like nothing with extra significant digits.
The moon is 4 •105 km away
I truly don’t mean this as an insult, but the second half of your post could apply to almost anything after a question mark it could be a new form of “that’s what she said”
You could be a trailblazer🤷♂️ But then I’m Irish…
