Wait, you post a single link and that's your entire evidence? I should've known better...

Let me check for some links that show jet fuel took down the twins, big foot pictures, and how gardening causes heart failure. I bet you'd think it's evidence. :D

All of this information cones in through your cornea --- which is 2-dimensional.

Most of the stuff they say is satellite communication, is actually land based, like GPS navigation. TV signals are land based, some transmitter on the top of a mountain somewhere sending the signal: based on how we are told radio signals work, we can bounce them off the firmament, extending the range, making it look like a signal is coming from the sky above.

Would love to see some data for these claims

The design of GPS is based partly on similar ground-based radio-navigation systems, such as LORAN and the Decca Navigator, developed in the early 1940s.

How do flat earthers explain those?

It is important to recognize that “flat earthers” are largely agents and/or products of a psyop - not real people.

Balloons? Projections?

To earnest flat earth researchers, all of the above and then some. There are many views on the subject - including that they are simply cgi and entirely fictional. If you are interested in exploring them, you may want to ask such questions over on flatearthresearch as well.

Personally i suspect that they are, as they originally began, balloons.

Why can we see the sattelites but not the balloons?

How are balloons able to travel multiple kms/second?

We shouldn’t be able to see satellites at all, by how far away they are supposed to be.

A non reflective balloon above them would be much more difficult to spot indeed, assuming they exist - that is.

How are balloons able to travel multiple kms/second?

It is important to recognize that we are speaking of speculation, but i suspect they are in a swirling motion found in the rarefied air far above us. There are certainly other - more esoteric - possibilities, however.

Then there really is no point in having a conversation.

Perhaps. But then there is really no point in asking questions about things you, and the people you ask, cannot verify for yourself/themselves.

My speculations are not baseless / without evidence, but like your belief that satellites are orbiting the world - speculation is all we have on such topics, short of blind appeal to authority (aka belief).

Although i speculate on what, precisely, satellites are and how (and if!) they stay floating above our heads without falling, i don’t speculate when i state that they are not and cannot be “orbiting” the way we are taught. The reason is because orbit is fictional, and was from its historical inception.
