If the earth is a sphere and the moon is another sphere rotating around the earth...

If the earth is a sphere and the moon is another sphere rotating around the earth, which is only visible at night due to it's reflecting the suns rays, how are we capable of seeing fully circular full moons? Shouldn't the moon either only be either partially visible (and in half moon, crescent, etc. phase), eclipsed by the earth when orbits align, or in the shape of an oval or ellipse when orbits do not align?

the moon's orbit around earth is tilted (by about 5 deg) compared to the Earth's orbit around the sun so the moon can be fully illuminated yet visible from the night side of Earth
Good question

This still doesn't make sense. If the moons orbit is tilted relative to our own around the sun, we shouldnt be able to see a circular moon? The light which hits the moon shouldn't reach to the far side allowing us a circular view. The results should be similar to holding a baseball above your head from the ceiling with a string and having a spotlight shine directly on the baseball from behind you. In a large dark room, obviously. From your perspective the far side of the baseball shouldn't be lit, and at best you should see a circular top (side closest to the sun) and fading side/bottom. Giving it a ovalish shape and never a circular one

The cosine of 5 degrees is 0.99619 can you notice a 0.38% difference in the moon?

The reflection of the light from the sun off of the moon isn't ever a perfect circle because the moon itself isn't a perfect circle. It has hills and valleys. However the scale of these hills and valleys compared to the overall size of the moon mean it is visually indistinguishable from a perfect circle to the human eye.

Nobody is claiming that the full moon is a perfect circle anyways. It makes no sense for it to be.

It's because the earth is actually flat. The full moon is evidence hiding in plain sight that people pull every excuse our of their ass to cover up.

>he fell for the Flat Earth meme
Lol
The earth is actually trombone-shaped, my little sheeple

So why then, in NASA released images of the moon from the Earth, is the thing almost always circular, with no fading shadow to the far side? What reason would they have to edit out the shadow fade and instead show us what looks like a head on shot?

Two different people have already explained to you why the effect you are looking for isn't visible.

OK this is my test for you.

In the picture you posted you can see the fading shadow on the top of the moon. Compare the bottom of the moon in that image (very crisp bright edge) to the top (darkness in large craters and a slight fading shadow) and you'll see what I mean.

The moon illuminates itself: youtube.com/watch?v=lcRp1jKJmJUer

Shit pic
Can see shadow on left edge
Can see shadow on bottom edge

you exposed their classic stupidity...they state half truths for full truths...fuck'em and keep flat earthers off the internets

But the earth is flat

Earth is a fixed plate.
Outer Space is Science Fiction
Moon Landing was a Cold War Hoax.
Gravity is a Hoax Force as well.
Relative Density explains why objects rise or fall in a given environment.

Having to explain reality to "Critical Thinkers".
Pride is a virus, honesty is the cure.

there are hundreds of independent observatories all over the world which have confirmed a lot of astronomical observations. if there was anything suspect with our models it would've been obvious by now.

They are in on the conspiracy. Just like all airline pilots, all astronomers, all those "tourists" who travel to Antarctica, every nation with a space program or satellites, anyone involved in aerospace in general, and so on.
They even got the other planets in on it as well, making them seem round to trick us. Not to mention the physics that we made up.
And all of this to keep up the lie made in the middle ages that the Earth is somehow "flat"

Foucault Pendulum

How does the flat earth model handle the change in angle based on the sin of a cross-section of a globular earth?

If we imagine a flat earth, then somehow the changing angle is related to a linear distance from the equator, but the angle reverses on the other side of the equator. this is a very big problem.
