the utterly delusional " answer " to this - from your typical flat-tard is :
if you use a telescope then you can still see the ship
no i am not making this up - this is the level of idiocy you get from them
they run away when you ask them why you cannot use a telescope to observe the sun after sunset

Speaking of astronomy, I request that you and others who find any potential reason in 'flat Earth' answer one thing:
Please describe what causes the phases of the Moon.
I have no idea as i am not really a flat earther but more like no curvature , no spin kinda guy .
Perhaps you being the Globe kinda guy , you would testify that you observed , detected , measured the curve and spin ?
I have been looking for the spin and the curve and can't find them in real life .
Curve and Spin missing ; let's deal with these two issues first and we may look at the moon later .
Btw , how does looking up at sky help determine the shape of Earth ?
I never get the assumption ; everything in sky is round so Earth must be round too !
I digress .
No Curve = No Ball.

Thinking there is no curve and no spin would make you a flat Earth guy.
Answer my request first.
No, let's look at the Moon right now. It's not just because of 'roundness' that it is relevant.
I will repeat my request: please describe what causes the phases of the Moon.

Suppose that the answer can be deciphered through analysis, then.
We generally understand that the Moon reflects light.
Can we agree that there is one major source of light in the solar system, the Sun?
The Sun would be providing the light that the Moon reflects to the Earth, wouldn't you agree?

I have no idea how this moon and sun light reflection issue relates to ground i live on .
Curve and Spin are what i am looking for and failing to observe , detect or measure neither .
I know that you can't testify to the curve and spin of Earth either .
How hard is this issue ?
No curve = no ball
No spin = no motion .

Spinning lights in the skies tells you that Earth is spinning ?
It's a presumption , surely ?
You also seemed to have missed the photos i posted above .
Really , you have no question to ask for the zigzag edges of Jupiter as oppose to smooth circle of moon ?
I am not claiming Earth is flat ; I am claiming that there is no curve nor a spin . These two notions are not mutually dependent nor mutually exclusive of one another .

I didn't miss your pics, they're pretty...
Spinning lights in the sky show the earth is spinning... thats called time lapse photography
said lights don't move... and they're not lights... we call them stars

No curve = no ball

We're getting there.
If you accept that the Sun is the chief source of light in the solar system, and if you accept that the Moon reflects sunlight to the Earth, then what do you suppose causes the phases of the Moon as shown below:

Ignore the photoshop in action , that is up to you .
You have determined that moving lights in the sky means Earth is also moving too ?
That is a leap of faith in and of itself ; following an iconic dogma indeed .
Please look at the Earth for a change ; that is what we are talking about after all .

Look , I appreciate your efforts but please understand this ; If there was an observeable , detectable and measurable curve o spin ; no one would be having a conversation such as this one we are having at the moment .
It's ok to admit that you never saw the curve nor felt the spin ; we all have the same experience when it comes to curve or spin .

i would love to see someone recreate that video in photoshop...
said video is of Polaris, which is the only star in the sky that is stationary... notice the rest revolve around it
Yes... this means the earth is in fact spinning...
Heres a good question for you in any case...
explain planetary retrograde in your flat earth model?
It can't be done... unless you factor in "God did it"... just decided to make planets reverse their motion
hmmm??

I am simply looking for the missing curvature and the spin .
I can't testify to witnessing , measuring , observing , detecting the spin and the curve .
You can look at the sky and infer that the Earth must be spinning too . That is too dogmatic for my liking ; without secondary evidence , the spinning stars indicate one thing in my World ; that is the stars are spinning .
Whether you like it or not ; no one can testify to have seen the curve nor felt the spin .
To my mind this is too much cod swallop to swallow indeed .
Oh , it is ok to admit that no one can testify to this curve and spin by first hand evidence .
Admitting it won't make you a flat earther , don't worry .
