Before calling it fake, check Japan’s Himawari-8/9 satellite a real Earth-observing satellite that captures full-disk images of our planet every 10 minutes using official space-based imaging, not weather predictions.

This is actual satellite imagery from space… sometimes Earth just looks so unreal that people forget reality can be more stunning than CGI

We do manage to get in at the edges of both the Himawari and the GOES-WEST satellites.
