Sure.

How about the Milky Way?

This is an image of another galaxy that has a similar appearance of the Milky Way.

Apparently we are located here in our own galaxy.

These images are produced from ground observatories and space telescopes orbiting our planet. I would suggest reading about telescopes!

I failed to mention that some images are conceptual mock-ups of what we think we are observing. We are still infants when it comes to space exploration.

I choose to believe that the moon landings were real because then I get to believe in Buzz Aldrin's radio message where he vaugely says "They're just watching us".

Otherwise I have to believe in shitty flat Earth theories that don't follow proper mathematics.

If you don't believe we landed on the moon, then Buzz Aldrin will punch you in the face

I have to believe one of the three astronauts though. Lance Armstrong, Neil Armstrong, and Buzz Aldrin.
Too bad Lance Bass never became an astronaut.

Woah this is a cool video. I skipped through it but the idea of "traveling at the speed of light" is an awesome concept
