Original Note:
Images and videos of clouds appearing to pass behind the sun are optical illusions and do not prove that a “local sun” is orbiting a “flat earth.” The optical illusion is a result of sunlight penetrating through the parts of a cloud which moves in front of the sun. https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-clouds-sun/fact-check-images-and-videos-of-clouds-passing-behind-the-sun-are-optical-illusions-not-proof-of-local-sun-orbiting-flat-earth-idUSL1N3240RG
