Re: [math-fun] Curve-fitting methods ?

I'll bite. Have you constructed this crude picture of Earth, or are you suggesting that it could be done? I would be interested in such a picture, as it is an analogy to the "1 pixel camera" discussed here previously. At 08:50 PM 9/23/2018, Keith F. Lynch wrote:

One of my projects for satisfying extreme skeptics is a way to construct a crude picture of the Earth from years of data on the brightness of the Earth-lit part of the crescent moon as seen from one's backyard. Of course the skeptic would have to trust my software, so there's little point in my writing such software unless I am the skeptic. Still, it's an interesting project.
