My experience with you types is that you hardly know anything, and certainly do not understand geography or science. We have known for centuries that the Earth (and other planets) are round, and why that is. The proofs are the circumnavigations and cartography possible only on a round world, not to mention spaceflight in orbit and deep space photography of the spherical Earth. Instead of learning about it, you guys get invested in a social delusion where you have to believe that EVERYONE is lying to you about a huge HOAX---presumably being put on for your special attention. Why you would matter to anyone is a puzzle, but---hey!---it gives you prestige to think you are so special, someone is hiding a secret from you. A secret that only you know! Except...except you have no evidence whatsoever. All you have are "questions" and arm-waving videos (to spare you the effort of writing anything down in cogent form).
If the Earth is flat (which it isn't), a proponent of that hypothesis should be able to point out a crucial factual proof in a few sentences. No one has. It's all supercilious posturing and "Hey, this video explains it all."
The Earth is Flat. There is no curve water always rests at flat. Gravity is a theory not proven a fact. We didn't go to the moon.
We are not spinning at 1,000 mph. Lol. Wake up
Prove any of this and you might overturn the world. But it's not going to happen. Geometers still have to map the surface of the Earth in a way that is consistent with a spherical surface, not a flat surface. People still circumnavigate the planet by ship, airplane, and satellite. The surface curvature of water is measured to high precision, and we find the higher-order curvatures resulting from rotation (oblateness) and mass distributions (pear-shapedness and ellipticity of the equator). Gravity works for us all the time, as fallen apples demonstrate, along with the science and practice of ballistics and orbital mechanics (as well as flight). We sure as ever went to the Moon, and came back with rock samples and took pictures of the whole Earth with chemical film (no CGI back then). We are spinning at 0.0007 RPM, with teeny-tiny acceleration effects (work out the math). I am laughing out loud---at you. You are the one who is asleep, and missed out on centuries of human progress in the sciences, navigation, and transportation.
ALL the proof is that the Earth is a sphere (to a practical approximation). There is nothing that can make this untrue. Nothing that can stop all the global transportation from happening. Nothing that can stop the fixed stars from being entirely different in the southern hemisphere, compared to the northern hemisphere. Nothing that can stop the fixed stars from being described in a spherical coordinate system.
You are deluded to an extent that reaches psychosis. Your world view is paranoid ("Everyone---absolutely everyone---is lying to me") and you are endangering your sanity by refusing to accept reality. You need to travel around the world to see the stars differently in different parts of the world. You need to look at the photos of the Earth taken during the Apollo program. Otherwise, for you, there is No Way Out. You are trapped in Wonderland---where you wonder what is real, and your belief in a flat earth is the only thing that keeps you from despair and chagrin that you have fooled yourself for so many years. Or, jump out of a tree and see if gravity exists. Don't be too ambitious. Ten feet off the ground should be proof enough. You will probably break an arm, but it might not kill you.
Earth is flat we live under a dome call the firmament. Go read the gravestone of Werner Van Bron the nazi who founded NASA.
All you can do is be a broken record. It isn't. We don't.
And referring to Wernher von Braun (you can't even spell his name correctly) gets you nowhere, because he was central to getting us to the Moon. His gravestone points to Psalms 19.1. But, as he was a German and a Lutheran, he was familiar with Luther's translation: "Ein Psalm Davids, vorzusingen. Die Himmel erzählen die Ehre Gottes, und die Feste verkündigt seiner Hände Werk." In English, it reads: "A psalm of David to sing. The heavens tell the glory of God, and the feasts proclaim the work of His hands." In some contexts, the term "Feste des Himmels" (not used in the German Bible) corresponds to what is sometimes in English translated as "firmament." But "firmament" is not always the English translation of this psalm, as many translations use "skies" interchangeably. In his case, "heavens" would be even more appropriate. So, take your cult nomenclature elsewhere. Nobody uses "firmament" in a term other than "sky," and the sky is not a dome. Von Braun knew best of all that this was not true, and was instrumental in orbiting the first American satellite, providing the booster for the first American astronaut, and providing the vehicle for the first men to land on the Moon. If one man can be the total refutation of the Flat Earth, it would be him, who remembered the Creator God as a gift to any who would seek his grave.

These guys are deluding themselves. The horses are out of the barn. We have circumnavigated the globe since Magellan, flown around it with airplanes since Lindbergh, and now orbit around it since Gagarin. We've got wonderful pictures from the Moon shot of the whole Earth. We've sent probes to the other planets using the "nonexistent" force of gravity...which even Newton recognized. These guys are going through the motions, but they are not scientists.
My experience with you types is everything you know about the globe is what you been taught. Have your seen the curve? No, you have not. You think james webb telescope is going to turn around and snap a photo of earth from its alleged orbit a million miles away?
NO THEY WILL NOT!! NEVER GONNA HAPPEN
They already did it in 1972 during the Apollo missions. You have something against chemical film? (pre-CGI)
Have I seen the curve? When I am at 40,000 feet in the stratosphere on a commercial flight, but that's an artifact of having a circular horizon. But new portions of Earth come into view as the portions we travel over go out of view (into and out of, not nearer and farther).
Will the Webb telescope turn around and snap the Earth? Of course not. It is designed to see extremely far into the universe; it wouldn't be able to see the whole Earth because of field of view limitations. (The whole idea of a telescope is that it magnifies what it is seeing.)
Besides which, we fly around the Earth daily, along with all of our satellites, which provide communications, geophysical data, and meteorological data. I've been to Africa. Do you realize we see different parts of the heavens depending on where we are on the Earth? Can't happen with a flat earth. The southern hemisphere is a completely different sky (constellations) than the northern hemisphere. Oh yeah, we only know what we are taught, not what we can see with our naked eyes. Maybe that would apply to you...
Everything we have been taught is a lie. Not everyone will be able to handle the truth
