If the earth was flat...then wouldn't you have to do a 180 to get home?
Also, if the earth was flat... then wouldn’t it cast a flat, horizontal shadow on the moon instead of the rounded shape which results in what we call a “crescent” moon?
I mean, you can confirm this if you walk outside and look up. No scientific conspiracy required.
If you see these things and still want to go in search of the “real” truth, I wish you good luck and Godspeed.

I hear ya.
The whole phases-of-the-moon phenomena does seem still to have no reasonable explanation. "Science" tries to explain Eclipses (both sun and moon) in plausible terms, but to me and many others, their explanations fall short of slam dunks. As to the earth responsible the casting of shadows on the moon, creating phases, that's a befuddlement up for debate.
Man (in his usual hubris and arrogance) deign and pretend to solve EVERY mystery of the universe or natural phenomena. They can't figure out everything. They'll never admit that it is impossible and they are NOT God Almighty.

Geez, the earth’s shadow does not cause moon phases

lmfao some dude proved the Earth was round over 2000 years ago

The measurement of Earth's circumference is the most famous among the results obtained by Eratosthenes,[13] who estimated that the meridian has a length of 252,000 stadia (39,060-40,320 km), with an error on the real value between -2.4% and +0.8% (assuming a value for the stadion between 155 and 160 metres).[2] Eratosthenes described his arc measurement technique,[14] in a book entitled On the measure of the Earth, which has not been preserved. However, a simplified version of the method has been preserved, as described by Cleomedes.[15]
The simplified method works by considering two cities along the same meridian and measuring both the distance between them and the difference in angles of the shadows cast by the sun on a vertical rod (a gnomon) in each city at noon on the summer solstice. The two cities used were Alexandria and Syene (modern Aswan), and the distance between the cities was measured by professional bematists.[16] A geometric calculation reveals that the circumference of the Earth is the distance between the two cities divided by the difference in shadow angles expressed as a fraction of one turn.
