To the imbecile who encouraged us to climb up the Everest so that we can witness the earth's curvature in its rotund glory: the only curvature that you can see from an aiplane's porthole is caused by its glass.
I don't know what shape the earth is, I know what it isn't: a silly ball hanging in miraculously non-sucking vacuum.
There is no outer space and you're all ungodly larvae.
P.S.: they have, rightly so, no respect for you: any video a mere 5m in altitude is shot with a fisheye cam.

They had radios in the XIXth century and transcontinental broadcasting by the early XXth. Thank goodness for the ionosphere.

How to cast a wider net for tracking space junk
There are only so many hours of the day you can use to track orbital debris. Some scientists think they’ve found more hours.

what you believe are far away objects are but very small images displayed on a futuristic monitor, yes monitor, for you're being closely watched.
P.S.: Do you get the esoteric meaning of the above song? Who is the singer? Read the lyrics.
The Bible tells that the sky is a "raqia", akin to a mirror, is impervium-solid, a sea of glass mingled with fire.
Newly found Comet Leonard might become 2021’s brightest
earthsky.org...
Exciting news! A newly found comet might become 2021’s brightest comet. Astronomer Greg Leonard discovered the comet that now bears his name – C/2021 A1 (Leonard) – on January 3, 2021 at the Mount Lemmon Observatory in Arizona. Astronomers report that discovery images show a tail for the comet, suggesting we might see a nice tail as Comet Leonard draws closer to the Earth and sun. The comet is still far away, currently between the orbits of Jupiter and Mars, heading inward. It’ll reach perihelion, its closest approach to the sun, around January 3, 2022. And so we’ll have a whole year to watch this comet get brighter, and brighter

The North Star changes because of the Earth's precession, so tell us Astronomers, not because it itself moves.
Rayleigh should also scatter reflected light in the Earth's atmosphere, and we shouldn't be seeing what NASA shows us, but rather a Neptune like, opaque blue ball.
Redshift and blueshift describe how light shifts toward shorter or longer wavelengths as objects in space (such as stars or galaxies) move closer or farther away from us. The concept is key to charting the universe's expansion.

Rayleigh scattering (/ˈreɪli/ RAY-lee), named after the nineteenth-century British physicist Lord Rayleigh (John William Strutt),[1] is the predominantly elastic scattering of light or other electromagnetic radiation by particles much smaller than the wavelength of the radiation. For light frequencies well below the resonance frequency of the scattering particle (normal dispersion regime), the amount of scattering is inversely proportional to the fourth power of the wavelength.
There is no outer space.
