So the shadow should be rounder if the eclipse occurs midnight, and would be more of a narrow ellipse if the eclipse occurs just after sun set or just before sun rise.Flat-Earthers either think lunar eclipse is not caused by the Earth, but some other (perhaps invisible) celestial body, or they think the Moon doesn't really get its light from the Sun.
Yet the shape of the shadow is manifestly the same no matter what part of the night the eclipse occurs. Such a shadow can only be cast by a spherical earth.
And you'll never convince them otherwise.
