Why does NASA fake images of Antarctica (and generally of the Earth) supposedly taken from space?

I was looking for photos of Antarctica as seen from space, and couldn't find anything.
The available 'photos' look very much like paintings or drawings and completely unrealistic. It is clear they are not photos, let alone taken from space.
Google Earth also doesn't show anything - just a small part of the coastline. They don't provide you with a satellite view map of Antarctica, as if it is forbidden to take photos of it or something!
It is clear they are hiding something, otherwise why the secrecy?
Edit:
Look at the following image provided by NASA.

How exactly is Antarctica twice bigger than Australia in that picture? Bear in mind that Australia is not in the center of the composition, but nevertheless it still has almost the same size. In reality, Antarctica should be twice bigger!
On top of that how come they took a photo of the Earth from space on which you can distinguish the outlines of the continents while the surface is clearly not lit by the Sun? How do we see it then?
The artist they hired didn't even do his job well.
