But why is the ISS transmitting what looks like ugly clip art?

๐Ÿš€ gh0stb0ners ยท May 11 at 17:30:

@stack I think that's just what earth looks like ;) I am less sure about the story behind the bird though.

The photo with the dove symbolizes humanity choosing peace while the other photo with planet Earth with a face ... I don't know :D

Geez, I think there is the proof that the Earth is flat.

๐Ÿš€ SavaRocks [OP] ยท May 11 at 17:55:

or at least that Earth is eye-balling the Moon :)

Where is the moon with the capsule through the eye?

@stack I was just kidding. I don't know that image or its meaning

I hope I didn't sound too serious.

I managed to receive images from the ISS with my Baofeng UV-5RM โ€” Yesterday between 21:56 and 22:03 EET, I managed to hear SSTV tones from the International Space Station using only a Baofeng UV-5RM from my balcony. Listen to the audio and view the decoded photos on: [gemini link] I managed to receive images from the ISS with my Baofeng UV-5RM
