I'm not dismissing the scientific method at all. Some proofs are complex and you or I may need deep study to understand them, but others spend their lives on them. Are you dismissing their work?

We had a flat-earther at Hivefest and also a CERN physicist. Which of those do you think could best argue their case? Just because something is beyond your comprehension does not make it impossible.

Find an astronomer who will explain things better than I can. There are Q&A sites for that. Maybe ask Elon Musk about his rocket company.

I cannot prove all these things for myself, but I trust that scientists have been held to account. If someone has a different model then they need to open it to scrutiny.
