Actually, I think it's possible to reconcile flat Earth and the veracity of space travel. What we see in the sky isn't space, the planets or stars, but rather portals to them. When the Curiosity rover floats up to Mars in the sky, it is transported to Mars' surface. Every other planet also has portals in the sky that look like the actual planets.

Don't you dare blaspheme that kitty by writing witless dribble on top of it.
Wrong on both counts.
Seriously, what's with all these flat earthers? Have they never understood why we have time zones? Do they not realize that when it's day on one side of the earth, it's night on the other side? I mean, we have instant communication via the internet now. It's not hard to ask people in other countries if it's night where they are. We can even see live video of it. If the earth were flat, it would be day and night across the entire planet all at the same time.

Spotlight sun.
Why do kitties play with balls of wool?

The idea of a "spotlight sun" doesn't even make sense, especially when you consider the size of the earth compared to the size of the sun. Plus, being a round ball of flaming gas there's no way the sun would only be able to shine its light on only half a flat earth. But I guess if gullible idiots are going to be stupid enough to believe in a flat earth, then it's not hard to come up with a model of the sun which is tiny and shines its light like a flashlight.

Yes, that's the spotlight sun model.

Never mind that, they still have nothing to say about what it's made of and why it moves in a spiral around the north pole to cause seasonal day length changes.
Yeah, I've heard that "spotlight sun" crap myself. I guess never mind that if that were true, you'd still be able to see the "spotlight" at night, just like you see the beam of an actual spotlight when it's not pointed at you...
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
