>Yes, but since you're obviously unable to provide any reasonable explanation of how a magic mirage like this would work

>But since you're a flat earther, large numbers probably scare you, so let's go over some proofs of the globe you yourself can obseve.
First of all: Polaris. Also known as the north star (actually north stars, as it's a system with two stars orbiting eachother),
Polaris is very close to the actual north celestial pole. Due to the round shape of the earth, polaris gets closer
and closer to the horizon the closer you are to the equator, untill it disappears entriely when you cross it.
Pic related.
>If the earth truly were flat, this should not be possible, and polaris could be brought back into view with a strong enough telescope.
>This, however, is not the case.
You can't physically zoom through the air.
>Next, just take a look at starmaps from the northern and southern hemispheres. They show completely different constellations. If the earth
were flat and the stars just lights on the dome, we should see the same night sky no matter where we're at on the plane
Dome model is retarded.

Nope, imagine an infinite plane earth, with an infinite plane sky, with infinite stars, rotating flatly above like ceiling fans, each one rotates in the opposite direction to the one opposite.

Perspective makes them look like they are not rotating perpendicular to the flat plane, as pic related demonstrates.

Still waiting for proof that Australians are seeing the same set of southern stars as those in South America etc.
