I have seen on the planets page of TFES that you believe that the earth is not a planet since it is flat. The moon is also not defined as a planet, but rather a satellite. Does this mean that the Moon is Flat? If not, can you please explain why it is round.

I got you dawg (https://wiki.tfes.org/Moon)
The moon is a rotating sphere. It has a diameter of 32 miles and is located approximately 3000 miles above the surface of the earth.
Not believing in flat Earth myself, I won't try to explain why it is round in that model.

All balls are round but everything round is not a ball.
A dinner plate is round and not a ball.
Doesn't make it not round, just not a ball.
Does that help?

I'm pretty sure there is one theory that the moon is a spherical satellite made by NASA to reinforce the round earth theory. I'm not a flat-earther myself, but I believe I've heard that somewhere.

...I'm more curious as to how the moon affects Earth's tides in a Flat-Earth model, what with Flat-Earthers not believing in gravity and such. :P

No. To say that planets are round is not the same as to say that only planets are round.
what with Flat-Earthers not believing in gravity and such. :P
Please read the FAQ and browse around the Wiki. It is unwise to presume.

Just read the physics/cosmology part of the FAQ in regards to gravity. Seems like the main theory is that gravity doesn't exist; the flat-earth is accelerating upwards at 32 feet per second, being pushed by "aetheric wind". But I see your point; the second theory is that the flat earth is an infinite plane sitting on the floor of the universe, in which gravity works the same way as in a round Earth model....somehow, lol. Not sure why all the planets and stars don't come crashing down on top of us then. :P
