"Admittedly I've not researched the Moon's distance enough."

Or how we know the earth is round since we've known it's been round for over 2000 years with simple observations anyone can make, even without a telescope in most cases, although that helps with some of the thousands of observations on how we know it's a spheroid.

Whatever you believe about space, the earth is easily proven to be round, and easily proven NOT to be flat. Just as our ancestors have understood for thousands of years now, based on simple observations.

Please stop confusing the two things. REGARDLESS of whether space travel is fake or not, the earth is EASILY determined to be a sphere. I honestly have no idea how these two different issues have become so mixed up in the minds of people.

To say "NASA is lying, so the earth must be flat" is an argument from SHEER and utter ignorance of how we know the earth is a globe. We know it by thousands of easy and simple observations anyone can make, not because of NASA.

If you actually are a truth seeker, I suggest you join a local astronomy club, after they pick themselves up off the floor after laughing that you believe the earth is flat, any one of them will be able to SHOW YOU in hundreds of ways you can see for yourself that the earth is demonstrably a sphere.

How am I 1000000% sure there is no conspiracy to hide a flat earth? You can purchase basically any grade of telescope your heart desires. NASA can't hide the night sky, and the night sky tells us in thousands upon thousands of ways that the earth is round.
