Astronaut Christina Hammock Koch recently shared a breathtaking photograph from the Orion spacecraft, showing the world as it was supposed to be, with the curvature of the Earth visible. Instead, a digital forgery involving two of the most recognisable names on the planet—NASA and Samsung—stole the spotlight.
The image itself was a masterclass, featuring the glowing blue marble of Earth framed by the spacecraft's interior, with Koch's braids floating weightlessly within. However, within hours after she shared it on Instagram, a screenshot began circulating on X (formerly Twitter) suggesting a sharp-tongued exchange had occurred between the space agency and the tech giant.
