Yes. It's only out now because some poor grad student has been pinch zooming for the last decade or so.

Seen more of it on twitter the last several year, mainly due to that guy getting them all the time. Since it seems you can't see it with your own eyes, it must be photoshopped, imo.
Sometimes I think of the Book of Job and how God likes to really eff with people.

Not photoshopped, just long exposure photography. Similar to those detailed Milky Way photos that show the galaxy in a way that can't be seen by the naked eye.  Although there was probably some post processing done in Lightroom or Photoshop.
