On the Flat Earth society FAQ page, they explain that it would be logically cheaper to fake a space program than to actually have one. The reason why the world’s most powerful people are trying to conceal the true flat shape of the Earth is not certain by the Flat Earth Society, but it could be financial. They have a belief that GPS devices are manipulated to make aircraft pilots think that they are flying in straight lines above a sphere, but they are actually flying in circles above the disc of Earth. Instead, the disc of Earth accelerates them upwards by a mystical force called ‘dark energy.’ This can easily be disputed by Einstein’s theory of relativity. They also say that Earth’s gravity is an illusion, and that objects do not fall downward.
The flat-earthers believe that these photos taken from space are photo shopped. This can be argued by the people in NASA who have been to space and have taken multiple pictures from satellites showing that the Earth is round. The society members claim that NASA employees guard this ice wall to stop people from climbing over, and in theory, falling off the disc of Earth. They believe that the Earth is a disc with the Arctic Circle in the center and Antarctica, a 150-foot-tall wall of ice, around the rim. There is ample evidence that the Earth is round, but they believe since only what they can see from Earth’s surface is flat that that is the only conclusion. Believing that the Earth is flat is one of the ultimate conspiracy theories. The flat earth society contains people from America and Europe and has been growing since 2009 (Wolchover 2017). While on the planet’s surface, it feels and looks flat, so they believe they dismiss all evidence to the contrary. People who believe in the flat earth theory do not think the Earth is round.
