Feb 18th, 2019: English Channel

NASA tagged this photograph as the English Channel... it ain't. It's actually the southern end of the North Sea.
The north end of the Channel is that narrow spot between London and Lille then continues south to between Penzance and Brest.



But I guess NASA feels, "close enough".

Why the flying-f*** doesn't NASA put north at the top like everyone else?
I think Space Station shots are inverted on purpose just to show how limited us prols are.

Easier for you to flip the picture than for NASA to flip the ISS?

In space, no one can hear you grouse.

Can't hear the Partridge Family either, which is a good thing.
