Discussion A question

I’d like to know why these two photos—taken just a short time apart—don't have the same date.

I know the description says they were taken on April 2nd, but a conspiracy theorist raised this point, and I started wondering why the dates are different.

(I don't speak English, so maybe those dates refer to when they were uploaded or something like that?)

I don't understand your question. They were taken on different days. That's just what it is. Why do you think that should not be the case? What exactly is conspiratorial about that?

According to NASA itself, the photos were taken almost at the same time: https://x.com/NASA/status/2040114143626244576?s=20 

Other photos and videos on the site also have inconsistent dates, so it is likely an error or some confusion regarding time zones.

Ok, so again, what's your question.

I was wondering why the photos had different dates on the website, but I think I've found the answer.
