Flat earth vs. globe earth is a strange argument since the proof is simple.
Hypothesis: The earth has a shape.
Experiment: Take a ship (any vessel will do really). Sail it in a straight line. See where you end up. Record results.
This experiment has been done many many times before and the results are recorded. They were recorded long before NASA existed in days where knowing where you were regularly meant the difference between life and death. I am satisfied with the results.
Also gravity.
Though as I've said before, it is a matter of relative scale. On a small scale that is relevant to an individual human most of the time, the earth is flat (sort of - if you're going to play this game, it's not flat at all what with mountains and valleys and such, but you know what I mean), on a macro scale it is not. Thus, one can effectively argue that it is both flat and a globe depending on the applied context.

Pretty.
Do you know what refraction is?
Did you ever ask why the sky is blue in the day time and get a proper answer?
Refraction is particularly affected by cloud cover. That is why the angles in your images are not consistent between events as they would be if the reason for the phenomenon was that the sun was close.

I'm interested in the results, but just so we are clear on why I won't be volunteering for the mission, please see attached.

The circumference at latitude 60S, which is (approximately) the first circumnavigable latitude, is 12500 miles (half the equator). It's going to take you a lot longer than three days to prove anything...

alot better than it would on a fuckin ball.... north is dead center and south is all the way around us.... east and west are irrelevant....
