Celestial Navigation Proves a Flat Earth?
I want to understand celestial navigation and how it proves a flat Earth. I read some infographs but I'm still confused as I didn't know what some words meant. Any help would be appreciated.

Do you understand what angles are?
Celestial Navigation is based on the coordinate system with the observer in the center of the horizon plane. All angles and calculations done in Cel Nav is based on this plane. There is no curved ground beneath the observer, so they have to assume a globe and then apply "dip corrections" such that it matches the distances on the globe projection maps.
