Why doesn't the Flat Earth Society launch it's own satellite?

I don't understand the whole business of the proofs, debates and conspiracy theories. Why doesn't the Flat Earth Society just launch it's own satellite (honestly even a weather balloon would work) and decide once and for al about the shape of the Earth? I mean, why argue when you can use the most obvious solution to find out the truth?

I love "why don't you just"ers.

Lack of money.

Weather balloon footage (I assume you think camera imagery is sufficient to settle the question) has enough issues that it doesn't decide it once and for all.

Welcome. Hope you enjoy your stay.

To get you an estimate how much developing and launching satellite can cost - https://www.hooandja.ee/en/projekt/eestlased-kosmosesse-estcube-2

Mainly because they generally claim satellites are part of The Conspiracy and do not exist.
