dumba**, on the sunlit side of the earth, that close, it's too bright from reflected light to see the stars. You have to be further out than the ISS to see the stars on the dayside. On the nightside, however, the srats would be more than you could see from Earth at night. Amazing photos!

this question of seeing stars from orbit is interesting. the idea of the sunlit earth being too bright doesnt quite make sense. without an atmosphere one light source doesnt necessarily wash out another. does the hubble only take photographs when its on the 'dark side' of the earth? we need a nasa guy to speak up here.

This is a photoshop. I can tell from some of the pixels and from having seen quite a few photoshops in my day.

Actually, this is pretty cool, and while one can argue that these are faked, it does little other than make one look like an idiot.

I think that the reason you don't see any stars in the photo has more to do with the dynamic range of the camera than anything else. The camera is set to expose the photo for the earth and the space station. Being that both are significantly brighter than the stars, the photograph would be taken at an exposure setting that would register the area of sky around the spacecraft as being pure black. This effect is heightened when using digital photography which has a much narrower dynamic range than film.

I seriously hate all you "it's a photoshop" trolls, why don't you f**k off and get some education or at least try to think about what you are saying.

The reason you cannot see stars is because the shutter speed/exposure time has to be very high due to the brightness of the incoming light, it overwhelms the film OR CDD chip in the camera. The star light is not strong enough to be read by the film or the CDD due to the need for a really fast shutter speed approx 1/10,000 or more depending on conditions.

But it doesn't matter because you won't believe me anyway so as before...... f**k you photoshop commentors.

Learn a bit about photography and also Astronomy. Firstly:
Look up the inverse square rule of propagation of light. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_square should be a good starting point.

The intensity of light falls off in relation to the square of the distance from the source. In other words, Mars, which is twice as far from the Sun (approx) than the Earth, receives a total light power of , not half but one quarter the amount Earth does. Other than the Sun, the next closest star (Alpha Centauri)_ is 4.2 Light years away.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_Centauri
Other stars in the local Cluster such as Sirius 12 LY and Barnard's star 6.2 LY spread their light out over a much greater area. The Earth is about 8 or nine light minutes from the sun. Alpha Centauri is four and a bit light years, or put another way 2296872 times as far from us than the Sun. That's about 2.3 million times. Consequently If a star of the same brightness as the Sun was put at this distance it's light would be 1/distance squared. This is about 1 divided by 2 to the 36th power, or o.ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo5 as much light on the film plane compared to Solar output. Most stars are a lot further away, so the light from them would be even less.

The scenes seen could be rendered OK with an exposure of say 1/125 sec at F8.0 or F11 with ASA 100 film or equivalent sensor. To see Stars with the same camera, film or digital the an exposure of at least a few minutes if not hours would be needed. As a result the astronaut, shuttle and Earth would be completely washed out if you exposed for the stars.

Pixelation. The image is a JPEG image published on the world wide web. One would expect pixelation.

Lastly, for all the flat Earthers How comes in a lunar eclipse is the shadow of Earth on the Moon's surface always round. If Earth was flat or disc shaped then sometimes the shadow it cast would be rectangular!

It is easier to read one good book than a whole bunch of hard ones.

That anonymous who claims these photos are fake surely has an astounding imagination. He says that the third photo is taken by "a guy in a navy blue onesie"(...). I've tried to see every pixel on the reflection in the astronaut's helmet and I'm unable to find "someone" else taking the picture... Pal, don't smoke that s**t before watching the pictures!

Any idea what the chemical composition is of the bronze-like metal they are using on a lot of parts? Is that dichromate of some kind or a gold alloy?

Exposure settings prevent stars from showing up. Same problem on the moon, (considering it's a giant white orb that reflections light).

The reason why there are no stars is not because earth is too bright to mask them. With no medium to disperse light one light source does not mask another. However, remember that these photos are taken with a camera. when there is a bright object you try to limit the amount of light that passes through the lens (fast shutter speed)since earth is relatively too bright compared to stars at the camera settings that would give you a good picture stars do not excite the photosensitive material (film or ccd)

he Alpha Centauri system consists of three stars orbiting each other. Alpha Centauri A and B are sunlike stars standing close by. Sometimes Alpha Centauri A is closest, and sometimes it is Proxima Centauri. At the moment its Proxima Centauri, a red dwarf orbiting Alpha Cantauri A and B. Its about 5% nearer to the sun than Alpha Centauri A. The distance sun Alpha Centauri is about 4.3 - 4.5 ly.

Hey, Everybody who still thinks these are shopped, please remember that there is no atmospheric perspective in space as there is no atmosphere. You will never see the same conventions of photography in this environment and therefore it can lead to a slightly "unreal" look to the pictures and a difficulty in establishing scale. Trust me, there's no reason to fake something that is so obviously real.

when u look at anything bright ur iris closes to protect the retna and only allow a safe amount of light in, the same is with cameras, when there is no earth blocking the sun(day) there is extreme brightness in space, there is no atmoshpere to refract and disperse the light(blue sky) so therefore the astronauts wear those "gold" vizors, and like an eyes iris set the cameras aperature very low so that the picture isnt so bright that you cant clearly see the astronauts
