I measured it Raaaid, and it was 6371KM. And I used a milli-metre ruler. So I think you may need to run your calculations again.

i have a question for you

why in the 100% of these pictures the sun is always in the zenith(always in the vertical of the photographer) so the earth never has a self shadow
There's these things called night and day.. during the day you can see, and take photographs that everyone else can see

At night time it's dark. Doesn't really make for good space walk shots.. look

Spacewalking at night..

I looked down my water well at noon while a friend looked down his 150 miles north of me and we calculated the angle of the sunlight and discovered that the earth is round.

I bet this has never been done before

of the thousands pictures provided on space walks earth never appears with a shadow like this:



that can only mean the sun always in the zenith(always one in a million) or fake pictures

this is a personal discovery only avalaible to fly simmers

Raaaid, I wonder if you miss this, forget this or what.

This is a development update posted by Oleg, in this update Oleg is showing the capabilities of of IL2COD graphic engine capturing in screenshots the ability of the engine in the reproduction of the earth.

From minus (close to ground) to max (close to space) :





















IL2COD earth is not flat, is just that the earth is to big for you notice his curve.

In fact you can do a space shuttle simulator with this
