When they see that the earth doesn't have an edge after a rotation or two they will say "It was amazing, we traveled that same rate the disk was turning so we couldn't find the edge."
They combust.
Oh, you think the window is fake? So you won't mind it if I break it, right?
i remember some flat earther attempted building a rocket and was successful, except it had no way to land and yeah...
well they will still only be able to see one side of it at a time, in their minds they will still think it's a circle, not a sphere, so you can't fix stupid.
Everyone knows the real shape of the Earth is a cube
They'll crash into the firmament at high speed, and die. God will probably smite their corpse for doubting Him.
There was that one guy who built steam powered-rockets and claimed to be a flat earther then died https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Hughes_(daredevil)
To be fair, his PR team said (after his death) he only made this claim to attract funding. Make of that what you will
They would believe you can do both.
Yes, we should sent flat-earthers into space
They will continue to troll you.
They know the earth is round. It is not like the moon landing that was obviously faked.
Space will become flat. /j
They just deny it. They deny everything, even obvious facts, to gain control over the conversation and no one sees through their bullshit.
