That’s okay, it doesn’t matter. Nothing matters.

Every thing matters. If it were not mattering, how could it be a thing?

Keep the strait closed until all sides clean up this mess.

America and Israel alone will clean their mess

You must be joking.

Don’t forget to recycle and buy an EV! It’s good for the environment! /s

Let me guess, you think the picture is fake…

Magnum@infosec.pub on 22 Apr 12:25 collapse

I don’t think that you can see the oil from space with your eye. Also the picture shown there is a zoomed in satellite image

Well, you can, surprisingly, everything on the internet isn’t fake. I know, crazy idea.

Here’s a whole paper on it.

And some more

And here’s one from the gulf of Mexico

I think the paper is about Oil Spill Detection on Landsat-8/9 Images Based on Deep Learning Methods

You can see the oil spills from space just as much as you can see the Chinese wall from space.

Yeah, check the rest of the links. I edited the comment with more. There are plenty of examples if you want to look them up. But, I’m sure you’ll just keep telling everyone it’s fake bcz why do a little googling of your own when you can just tell everyone remote sensing is fake news.

Edit: here’s a whole website on it from NOAA

And a nice blog post about it

So you second link again analyzes the images using satellite and the third link shows a different spot altogether?

This is the outcome of war. An environmental catastrophe is not how you get order and peace. When the government talks about “security” it’s their own security not your.

Technically anything is visible from space with a good enough camera. It was a lot more impressive sounding when cameras sucked.
