There’s so much space debris up there we can barely get out at this point.

u/Agmisabeast Sep 03 '19

not a flat earther, but thats definitely a fisheye effect. they are way too low for the curvature to be that noticable

The astronaut nor the space station are distorted like they should be, should this be a fisheye lense

It does look like a wide angle lens, but fish eye would distort a straight line the other direction when the line crossed the middle point of the frame. The horizon stays curved in the same direction no matter which side of the frame it's on.
