Snapchat Effect

When someone looks incredibly good looking in photos but incredibly average in real life, resulting in a temporary letdown.

"Sarah looked really awesome when we snapped last night but when we got coffee she had a butterface. I guess that's the Snapchat effect in action."

Overview Effect

It is the experience of seeing firsthand the reality of the Earth in space, which is immediately understood to be a tiny, fragile ball of life, "hanging in the void", shielded and nourished by a paper-thin atmosphere. From space, national boundaries vanish, the conflicts that divide people become less important, and the need to create a planetary society with the united will to protect this "pale blue dot" becomes both obvious and imperative.

Astronauts experience the Overview Effect in space looking at the Earth.
