tl;dr You need a camera and either a long lens or a telescope that'll hook to it to see how parallax lets you view the moon from different angles.

So, the moon always shows one face to Earth. Round Earthers believe it's because, despite the moon being a sphere, it's "tidally locked" to Earth and stuck in that position. Sounds suspicious, eh?

Well, Round Earthers also believe we are also on a big sphere, and that sphere is constantly turning. If that's true, we're also shifting in position in relation to the moon. If the moon was a sphere you'd be looking at it from different angles, wouldn't you?

Well, turns out you can. If you can take good quality photos of the moon at dawn and dusk you'll see the moon from different angles. If you take a number of different photos over night and string them together you'll be able to see the angular change. With a good view (you'll need a 1000mm equivalent lens or better) the 3D motion is apparent enough to demonstrate both that the moon is a sphere and that you're moving in relation to the moon.

is it ? we have been lied to about literally everything but we shouldn't at least question this as well?... it would be insane not to question this instead of just believing all they say about our world and the space around us, which is from the same lying mouths that has lied to us about everything else. we should never rip on people for questioning abosolutely everything.. in fact it should be our duty given all that we have been lied to about.

So you think the earth, moon and sun are all flat, lol... I guess smooth brains all think alike.

no i think what our ancestral mythology says about our world is true.. Norse and Hindu in particular.

They say mutually incompatible things. In one mythos, the world was crafted from the corpse of the god Ymir. The Hindus have several creation myths depending on which faction you're in, but the most prevalent one is "Shiva and Shakti joined together."
