There was this documentary on flat earth a few years back. If after watching this you still believe we don't live on a flat earth protected by a dome, then there's no hope for you at all!

what you believe.Understand pertains to science.
Believe pertains to religion.
All the flat earth "science" is only partial science or it is twisted science.
Partial science leaves things out or adds things that are not science. It takes a lot of calculation to figure out what should go into the science and what should not. FE science is incomplete in its calculation.
Twisted science is a misuse of scientific principles. Sometimes this misuse can be readily seen. Sometimes it is rather hidden.

Take a look at this little story to see what I mean. Back in the 1950s, 3 guys stopped at a hotel for the night. These guys were not together. They just happened to stop at the same time, looking for a room for the night.
The hotel clerk told them there was only one room left vacant. They would have to draw straws for it, or they could share it if they wanted. The guys decided to share it.
The clerk charged them each $10 (remember, the 1950s), and they went up to their room.
Some time later the clerk felt a little guilty for charging them that much when they would be sharing the room. So he gave the bellboy $5 to take up to the guys as a refund.
On the way up in the elevator, the bellboy realized that he didn't know how to divide $5 evenly among 3 guys. So, when he got to their room, he gave each of the guys $1 back, and kept $2 as a tip.
Since each guy got a dollar back, that means he paid only $9 for the room, right?
Three times $9 is $27, plus the $2 that the bellboy kept, makes $29. What happened to the 30th dollar?

When you think about it for a moment, you can see that this is twisted thinking. That's what FE people do to show FE. Solid science shows that the earth is a globe.
But the BIG point is that when you believe something, you are talking about religion. Only when you understand it are you talking about science.
