In the flat model the sun is moving away until it passes the vanishing point. Gaining altitude changes the start point of that, so this works in the flat model. I still haven't had anyone explain how high altitude balloon footage from 123k has no curve away or to the side and how the sun puts a hot spot on the clouds below. As for the Greek well experiment, that works in the flat model. The sun is above the 1st well and lights it to the bottom, of course the 2nd well has the shadow at an angle, the sun hasn't moved to above it yet. That doesn't mean it's at an angle because the earth has a curve. The wells are a few miles apart, 123k is over 23 miles. So how does the smaller distance have an obvious curve, but the much larger distance has none?
