When I was a child I wanted to be an astronomer. One sees Jupiter's big red spot and atmospheric bands with a backyard telescope. The red spot dips behind then appears in view again as the planet rotates, as if on an axis.

If it's obvious to anyone with a telescope, that at least Jupiter is a sphere, why would Earth be flat?

One answer I hear from flat earthers is that other planets are round, but not Earth.

The other answer is that space is some sort of projection, and you're not seeing planets are all.
