Do you have a source for the claim that a lot of people believed the Earth was flat in Galileo's time? (Galileo was born decades after the Magellan-Elcano circumnavigation of the world.)

Sorry, it seems you are correct and I was wrong. I mixed up the idea of the geocentric model and thought the flat earth theory was included in that.

My bad and thanks for correcting and enlightning me :)
