I'll post the results after a good no. of votes are in.
Technically none are.
A sphere can't be technically classified by a photograph. Just like many things that can't be classified unless it is in real life. For example, you can't show a picture of a bright blue sky with no clouds and say in that picture the temperature is 75 degrees F and the wind speed 10 mph.
It would all be speculation.
Well that's mighty interesting. So you're saying by looking at photos of supposed spheres, you can't really determine if they're really spheres or not?

Yes. And I know where you are going with this question. You are probably thinking if that is the case, how do we know if the Earth is a sphere since most of us have only seen it via pictures and TV? Easy, like the temperature and wind, they can be measured with instruments and physical testing.
There are many rockets that are flown into space monthly. China has been to space way more than the US. If Elon Musk is is successful with his SpaceX project, you may be able to buy a ticket to see the Earth in it's entirety for yourself.
Or you can pay Russia or China, like a few billion dollars for a seat on their next trip up.
ETA: if you have been high enough on a plane you can start to see the curvature of the Earth. It was one of the first things I notice on my first trip to China. The pilot flew us over the North pole.
On a commercial flight? At 33,000 feet you can see a curve? Wow, you don't say.
Earth isn't quite a sphere, a sphere is perfectly symmetrical the earth isn't. The earth is considered a spheroid.Yes. And I know where you are going with this question.

which one?
It’s christmas cro
Earth isn't quite a sphere, a sphere is perfectly symmetrical the earth isn't. The earth is considered a spheroid.
Isaac Newton first proposed that Earth was not perfectly round. Instead, he suggested it was an oblate spheroid—a sphere that is squashed at its poles and swollen at the equator. He was correct and, because of this bulge, the distance from Earth's center to sea level is roughly 21 kilometers (13 miles) greater at the equator than at the poles.So it's more like an egg?

I bet you thought it was a nude shot of Sgt. Nightstick', crotch standing in the dark with a new partner ….It's like Inception but with idiots. @cashwhisperer
Flat Earth
Gravity is fake
Sun is close and small
Moon is self lit and closer
Space is fake
NASA is nazi overlords
Science doesn't exist
Physics is fake
Astrophysicists are all NASA shills
Orbital Mechanics is fake
Theses a dome over the earth
Rockets are fake
Moon landing didnt happen
NASA doesnt know what a planet is
NASA hired Kubrick to fake moon landing
NASA forces all other nations to cooperate with hoax
International Space Station is fake
Satellites dont exist
GPS works with ground based radio towers
Sun light is electromagnetic interference
We have to believe all of this shit to think the earth is flat.
I answered this in the other thread
None of them are spheres it's a 2d image.
Its a sphere that is slightly larger at the equatorSo it's more like an egg?

No,Right. So we're establishing that you can't tell if an object is truly spherical if it's from a 2D image. That includes video right?
Bull shit.These are your words, not mine. That list is not accurate as far as I'm concerned.
