Imagine being this Astronaut, on this untethered spacewalk.

I really hope that before I die, space tourism becomes more practical. I truly want to see Earth from space, that's a dream. ๐Ÿ˜Œ

I also want to do other things but I know most of them are not practical/possible, at least in my lifetime. Tbh, it bothers me a lot. ๐Ÿ˜…

I think you can do it

what if you have to answer one question before they let you into space to look at the earth?

Q. is the earth flat?

answer wrong and you dont get to go. what is your answer?

It's not flat; I can test this assertion by measuring shadows at various locations on Earth. Some YouTubers have even sent rockets with eggs into space, and you can see the curvature.

heres your ticket, enjoy the show ๐Ÿงพ

I would love to see earth from space too. I'd be incredibly scared, but equally in awe of it all.

The Overview Effect is what they call it. Every astronaut says it changes you forever. You can never see humanity and the universe the same way again. Profound changes occur.
