Wait hold on, a few years ago they switched up and said that newly discovered observations proved that the Earth's atmosphere does indeed extend BEYOND the moon or in other words, yes the moon is INSIDE the earths atmosphere:
0:00 - 0:17
"Our Earth's atmosphere is waaaay bigger than we thought......like it goes PAST the moon"

packing my suitcase now.
i look through my telescope at new york each evening as preparation for my time there.

i'll be staying in a quiet county so hopefully not.

It isn't a 'switch'. There are several layers of our atmosphere and the layer called the exosphere extends from about 400 miles to 10,000 miles above the Earth. At that altitude, the molecules that compose our atmosphere are so spread out (density = 10 ^-¹⁵kg/m3), it acts better than the best vacuum we've managed to create on Earth. Recent studies showed those molecules are detectable past that range (geocorona). So, no, it ain't IN the atmosphere in the way that statement and findings suggest....
phys.org
Earth's atmosphere stretches out to the moon – and beyond
The gaseous layer that wraps around Earth reaches up to 630,000 kilometers away, or 50 times the diameter of our planet, according to a new study based on observations by the ESA/NASA Solar and Heliospheric Observatory, SOHO, and published in AGU's Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics.

So how would that work for a plane flying west at 500mph? Does that mean that the plane isn't moving at the earth is rotating 500mph east, away from said plane?Keep in mind: inertial reference frames.
Inertial reference frames can exist within inertial reference frames.
For example, in the Globe Model, generally speaking the Earth is an inertial reference frame. But on Earth, a car, plane or a train themselves are also inertial reference frames-- this is why you can sit in a car, train or a plane that is moving at a constant velocity and you feel no movement, and can do things in the vehicle, such as drink a bottle of water, play cards, or even balance a coin:
I've ridden the bullet trains in Japan many times and can personally attest to being able to do this ^^^
Anyway, how this relates to your cloud question is the same principle: the cloud is within the reference frame of the Earth, so it is moving with the Earth's rotation. But just like how you can walk to the rear of a plane that is flying in an Eastern direction (again, I've done this myself on my many flights to Japan from Los Angeles) the Earth is "static" from the perspective of the cloud, and the cloud can move relatively freely within that system while also maintaining the overall Eastern rotation with Earth's atmosphere.
The parts that appear blue, without the Earth's atmosphere in the way, would appear "black", because those are craters and those craters are in partial or sometimes total shadow.
This can be demonstrated on Earth:
If you viewed this from space, you'd see it as a black shadow, or if you viewed it through a blue-light atmosphere like Earth's, it would appear bluish.
There are also some craters on the moon that are in perpetual shadow, due to the moon being tidally locked with Earth.
Craters on earth are illuminated sometimes when the sun crossed them at the correct angles. No matter what photo I'm looking at, the craters on the moon look the exact same, no matter where it is with respect to the sun
Are there any close up pics of the moon where the mountains or "elevated areas" are casting shadows on the lower level areas?
The plane is always rotating with the Earth's rotation. It will never not rotate in the same manner as the planet, no matter what direction it travels.
It's the same exact situation that I described above: the Earth constitutes an inertial reference frame. This means that everything is ALWAYS rotating with the Earth at a near constant velocity, so it feels like nothing is rotating in exactly the same way that a car ride is comfortable even though you're travelling at 60-70 mph.
This is why I keep bringing up cars, planes and trains. Inside of a flying plane, you can move freely inside the plane in any direction, but the plane and everyone inside is always moving in the same direction overall.
Yes, as I showed in the screenshot, there are craters that are perpetually dark, and due to the Moon's orbit and rotation, we always only see one side of the moon.
There are quite a few:
Copernicus Crater (shadow on the right side of the image):
Tycho Crater's 1.6 kilometer peak:

In a whirlpool, there are forces causing the rotate while also pulling the water inward/down. In a whirlpool, when the entire system is moving in one direction, it's not possible for an object placed in said whirlpool to just move off in any direction besides the direction of rotational force, unless another force is acting on it
It doesn't make sense to me that a plane can still be rotating in the same direction as the atmosphere, when it is literally thrusting off of the atmosphere in the opposite direction
Of course you know I think those pics are generated on a computer
Simplifying these concepts is a great idea, and it's how people understand difficult concepts. The only problem is that there are times where simplification doesn't always work.
Your whirlpool example is one of these instances. The problem with this example is that the parameters are not the same. A whirlpool is not a system where there is uniform velocity and there is a lot of fricative forces in that system. In the Globe Model, the Earth is rotating in a near vacuum, and is not experiencing friction in the way something in a whirlpool would be.
I think you're confusing the fact that a whirlpool spins and that we are saying the earth spins. There are different kinds of rotation, and a whirlpool is not a solid body, but a collection of billions of different molecules.
Do you think you cannot walk to the rear of a train that is travelling in one direction?
This is the same exact principle as the plane on Earth. A plane is a "passenger" on the "train" of Earth. The same way you can comfortably walk to the bathroom on a train or the snack bar or to another seat, a plane can freely travel within Earth's atmosphere.
OK, let's try this a different way-- what would YOU consider proof of an image? I mean, you asked me for images, and I gave them to you.
What would constitute proof of the validity of an image?
I think the train example works because we have a reference frame from outside the train. We can see the motion of the system from outside the system
I'm not sure it's possible to observe a plane flying west from outside of earth to observe what's happening
Like I said before I completely understand these concepts. I know the type of motion in a whirlpool is different than the type of motion of the earth. can give the correct answers on a test. I'm just not sure that I observe these things in real life
I honestly don't know what a valid picture would look like
This is supposed to be an official Japanese government video of the earth from the moon. It looks ridiculous to me
In this video and those photos, the moon just looks like a computer rendering to me
WHY does it look like a computer rendering? I mean we can dismiss anything we want in this world based on "feelings"
Poetical Poltergeist
Precise and cold hearted
I'm convinced. The earth is flat. Even though we have never seen a flat planet and it makes no sense that every scientist would lie about earth being a sphere. 
Because I've spent a lot of time rendering images on computers. The pixel count looks extremely low in the video and the images
Pictures from the 60s appear to have more detail and less/no pixelation
To be clear I don't think they're on the moon here
Do you think that video i posted looks real?
