There is no "globe model". There is simply all of established science vs. the flat earth model. The flat earth model isn't one of "solar system", it's one of "an entire new body of physics". You can refer to the page and half I just wrote to your other comment.
EDIT: Also, simply pick ANY OTHER STAR IN THE SKY to triangulate from. Suddenly your entire theory falls flat.
I'm not going to take the time to engage any more single instances. If you're a grown adult and believe you've done a thorough job investigating the topic, please feel free to form any beliefs you'd like. Have a nice night.
The situation is clearly exactly the opposite as what you just described. I'm tired of explaining things to people who aren't interested in what I'm telling them. You've made up your mind, and I hold no delusions of convincing you otherwise. Quite honestly, it's as dumb as me trying to explain evolution to a Christian.
The earth being round is a product of every natural law we have established. If you think otherwise, you may not be an idiot, but you are certainly uneducated.
Right ascension and declination is how navigation has been conducted since Europe inherited the knowledge from China during the Renaissance (or invented it independently, whatever you prefer).
The funniest part might just be, if you look up "spherical trigonometry", which you clearly have not, the very first paragraph says this:
Spherical trigonometry is the branch of spherical geometry that deals with the relationships between trigonometric functions of the sides and angles of the spherical polygons (especially spherical triangles) defined by a number of intersecting great circles on the sphere. Spherical trigonometry is of great importance for calculations in astronomy, geodesy and navigation.
You want some of my popcorn? It's tasty! OK seriously though, I did "look" into the FE when I was at home sick for a week and ran out of stuff to watch on YouTube. They use compelling arguments, just not complete ones. They cannot explain all of the phenomenon we see, experience, measure etc.
I had an opportunity to go out in a boat on
Flathead Lake is the largest natural freshwater lake west of the Mississippi in the lower 48 states, with over 200 square miles of water and 185 miles of shoreline.
I could literally see the curve on the water; case closed for me.

Why do sea captains use plane sailing to navigate then which ignores the curvature of the earth and acts as if you're on a flat plane?

Sounds like you're just plugging your ears and not wanting to look into things.. which you're free to do but is just being dishonest to yourself.

If the earth is a sphere then why would plane trigonometry give accurate results in sea navigation over sphere trigonometry?

Read anything on navigation. From antiquity until present day. All navigation is based on the knowledge of a round earth.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Navigation
Modern navigation is done entirely by GPS, which relies on satellites, which again, rely on a round earth.

Right ascension and declination is how navigation has been conducted since Europe inherited the knowledge from China during the Renaissance (or invented it independently, whatever you prefer).

You can't possibly be serious...
I can't believe I got dragged into being further downvoated by whatever strange religious mob you're part of....

I'm just sad I got baited into responding to these fools at all. You'll notice they get really quiet when you actually respond with facts.
