You don't seem very open, frankly.
Sure I am.
I don't know what you're trying to say here.

I’m open to the spherical data and models and mathematics. You willfully ignore and cannot see how it all can work on a plane as well. Just keep making false equivalences.

You’re just another gaslighter as well. I don’t think that you’re very cool as you try to be just to fit in. You’re naive and gullible to believe what anyone tells you and incapable of hearing anything alternative.

Keep believing in curved water, and sideways and upside down living. Sounds intelligent.

How do you determine what is the right way up in space?
In other words, how do you know you're NOT upside-down?
Do you actually want to engage with this discussion or not?
Conspiracy theory - Wikipedia
There's also the idea that conspiracy theories - which includes flat eartherism - also provide reassurance in a weird way: the idea that everything is controlled by secret conspirators implies that we have less to fear from random misfortunes: even an evil secret plan is still a plan, so if the reasoning behind the plan can be inferred, then this knowledge can be used to keep a person safe. This can be a source of comfort for a person who otherwise would feel vulnerable and powerless.

A group of Flat Earthers trying to prove earthy flatness got a big dose of comes-aroundness when the $20,000 gizmo they purchased for that purpose kept coming up “round.” They could have spent far less with the same result by using a Magic 8-Ball … if those were flat. What does karma have against Flat Earthers? Let’s find out.
You've shown no indication that you actually are.
No, I cannot see how it would work from a plane as well.

According to many from their location ~ I am upside down. While my vehicle, animals, these buildings, signs, etc. are all glued by gravity while birds and insects and gas/smoke, and balloons, helicopters, aero planes, the mass of clouds, etc. are all not affected.
@Uncommon Sense - do you agree that Australia exists?
... or is this another one of those things where you're "open to the data and models?"

I have seen satellites with the naked eye. That was while in the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. Shortly after sunset one can see them. It helps when you are not anywhere near an urban area. To see them with an amateur telescope would be almost impossible since, as you pointed out, they move too fast to track by hand.
Both 'sideways' and 'upside down' depend on the local direction of gravity. Curved water is a triviality.

Seriously, is this really the level of your argument, really? Also, please answer my question here: #213.

Why wouldn’t Australia exist? What kind of false equivalence are you hinting at?
Who said those are not affected by gravity? They most certainly *are* affected. But they also all generate a lift force to counteract the force of gravity. The two forces are in opposite directions and cancel out.

So whether or not something is upside-down or sideways is relative, so there really is no such thing on a spherical earth.

In common with creationists - this shows a staggering ignorance of what the science you are disagreeing with actually says.
