Round earthers cant explain why, with all the massive amount of movement the Earth is experiencing (1000mph rotation, 55,000mph around the Sun, and our solar system moving 500,000mph through our galaxy and our galaxy is moving too) why we see the same constellations in the sky and Polaris never moves. That's a problem for Round Earthers.
Ive given the altitudes that our best planes can reach, and mentioned the supposed height the Sun is located at in the FE model. Your answer lies therein.
I'm not sure exactly what your asking here? If I follow your question, then I would answer, "Because that's what they were created to do."
Sure we can, our galaxy and solar system are both moving at high speeds. The constellations become visible and disappear over the horizon based on season.
There is no means for FE to explain that unless the stars also rotate very quickly around the Earth in a circular fashion. No idea what stars would be in a FE model.
Polaris is in the North sky, which the axis of the Earth rotates around.

3000 miles is a lot different than 94 miles or whatever you had listed before pre edit.
What, mechanically speaking, causes the Sun and Moon to change orbits in a FE model? Your answer right now is "they just do." In a RE model they only very slightly change orbits due to oval rather than circle movement and fluctuations in gravity.
