First hand evidence. Some people have seen earth from space/moon.

However, we do not need the evidence from space to prove that the Earth is round. The easiest proof is a vanishing horizon. For example, if you stand on a beach and watch a boat, it will disappear from view from the bottom to the top. If the world were flat, the boat would always be visible, but just shrunken in size.

Are phases of moon evidence of shape of the earth?

No, it has nothing to do with the shape of the Earth. Phases of the Moon are caused by the relative positions of the Sun, the Earth and the Moon. When seen through a telescope, Venus presents similar phases. However, the circular shape of Earth's shadow that is projected on the Moon' surface during a lunar eclipse is evidence that the Earth is round.
