"Proof" in common parlance is indeed bandied about when referring to scientific matters. However it's better to restrict the term to the field of mathematics (or the law!). Science is about evidence, not proofs.Mainstream science is continually changing its mind and openly claims nothing can ever be proven.
Here is a peer reviewed journal article from the Journal of College Science Teaching. http://www2.lv.psu.edu/jxm57/pdf/POV-Sept06.pdf
This is very much a mainstream view and with that being the case, they admit there is no proof the earth is a globe.
