When you get on a "plane", they just project films of the "sky" on the windows so you think you're "flying". Then when you get to "New York", it's just a giant film set they have built to fool you.
Does it matter that we might be living in a simulation? How should we feel about that prospect? Artists and thinkers have come to various conclusions. The idea of living as a “copy” in a simulated world was explored, for example, in “Permutation City,” a 1994 novel by the science-fiction writer Greg Egan, which imagines life in the early days of simulation-creation. The protagonist, a computer scientist named Paul Durham, becomes his own guinea pig, scanning his brain into a computer to create two Pauls; while the original Paul remains in the real world, the digital Paul lives in a simulated one, which is a little like a modern video game. Standing in his simulated apartment and looking at a painting—Bosch’s “The Garden of Earthly Delights”—Paul can’t quite forget that, when he turns around, the simulation will stop rendering it, reducing it to “a single gray rectangle” in an effort to save processing cycles. If we live in a simulated world, then the same thing could be happening to us: Why should a computer simulate every atom in the universe when it knows where our eyes aren’t looking? Simulated people have reasons to be paranoid.

There are plenty of videos with the space actors caught in front of green screens and video artifacts that clearly show layering.

Flat earth clearly implies geocentric universe therefor Earth is different than what's in the heavens.
Right, thanks. The fog is clearing. So, in your cosmological model, the earth is a Unique Giant Quiche surrounded by lots of little spinning gobstoppers (NB: not other quiches).
[...]
So, next questions:
1. What happens when an airplane attempts to fly over the edge of the quiche?
2. What's to stop the pilot taking photos of the underside?
