We're now in an age where photos of space, taken from space, are becoming commonplace. We're also in an age where someone can swap out the moon for a moon emoji on Twitter.

Astronaut Rick Mastracchio posted a photo of the Earth and moon July 25, taken by a NASA camera onboard the Deep Space Climate Observatory satellite. And he remarked that it was so fantastic that it almost seemed too amazing to be a real photo.

While some questioned the photo and others defended it, some Twitter users took a different route entirely. They Photoshopped the photo into something even more fantastic. To the point where they were actually too fantastic to believe. 

Unless you believe the Earth is orbited by an enormous, floating hamburger.
