>Many countries have military bases there.

Many countries have military bases in EUrope, what does that have to do with anything?

>You have to get permission

OK, do that.

>and there are no go areas.
Even if true, you are looking for a giant ice wall that stretches for many thousands of miles.

Or even just a quick glance at how the Southern circumpolar stars down there work would be sufficient. If there are not any, you prove your point. Hell, you could observe THAT from anywhere in the southern hemisphere.

>But... but... many countries have military bases in the southern hemisphere.

But the sky in the real world has two points of apparant rotation, one over the North pole and one over the South. (Southern one seen in THIS image.)

This can't happen on any flat Earth model I've seen; their model predicts only one. The globe model predicts two, 180 degrees apart in the sky, and this is what is observed.

It does not require reliance on NASA or difficult math to see this phenomenon.

Flat earthers are not on the southern hemisphere. If they are, they'd better have a damn good explanation for their stars rotating around a southern point in the sky.

But, you guessed it, this image of Southern circumpolar stars, while predicted by the globe model, is impossible under that flat model.

And now...

Circumpolar stars taken from Australia, looking South, Two sets of circumpolar stars are predicted by the globe model but impossible under the flat model.

This will not convince anybody who is truly insane, nor will it force a dedicated troll to admit defeat. But unless a flatist can explain it, I can be done talking to them at that point.

Circumpolar stars as seen looking south from the Southern Hemisphere! Not possible to have both sets of circumpolar stars in a flat model, but inevitable with a rotating globe.

Now... here is a similar picture, but this one taken looking south from Elephant Rock, Australia, showing circumpolar stars in the Southern hemisphere over the south pole.

This is the expected phenomenon on a round Earth, but is impossible on a flat Earth, where there can only be one set of circumpolar stars as there is only one pole.
