The Truth About The Flat/Round Earth Theory
The world’s most famous astrophysicist has confirmed the long-held belief that the Earth is round.
Neil deGrasse Tyson debunked ‘flat Earth theory’ in a new video on his YouTube channel. In it, he spoke with comedian Chuck Nice about the overwhelming scientific evidence that our planet is spherical in shape.
“We have video from space of the rotating, spherical Earth,” Tyson says. “The Earth is round.”

After pretending to end the conversation after that definitive statement, the co-hosts went on to discuss how some people had come to believe in a flat planet.
‘Flat-Earthers’ are a small group who have gained notoriety in recent years for their unsubstantiated claims that the Earth’s roundness is a conspiracy, and that the truth of the planet’s shape is being withheld from the public.
“What’s odd is there are people who think that Earth is flat but recognize that the moon is round,” Tyson says.
“Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and the sun are all spheres. But Earth is flat … something doesn’t square here.”
He explained the physics around why heavenly bodies tend to be spherical, which he wrote about at length in his book Astrophysics for People in a Hurry.
“All the laws of physics and the accounting of energy as processes unfold in the universe…they conspire to make things round.”
Bodies that have a flatter shape have been compressed because they rotate extremely fast, which the Earth does not.
“Almost everything in the universe is either spheres or slight distortions of a sphere.”
As evidence, he cited the lunar cycle which everyone can observe.
“If you see the shape of Earth’s shadow on the moon, it is always round. If Earth were flat, sometimes you’d get a flat shadow. Who’s ever seen a flat shadow?”
“The only thing that makes a perfect circle shadow every time is a perfect sphere.”
While Christopher Columbus is commonly credited with proving the Earth’s roundness by crossing the Atlantic Ocean in the 15th century, Tyson says the Ancient Greeks knew they were living on a sphere thousands of years prior.
He mentioned Eratosthenes’ famous well experiment to calculate the circumference of the planet, as well as seafarers who would observe ships disappearing beyond the horizon as evidence of a rounded Earth.
He says the rise of flat earth theory indicates two things: the right to free speech, and America’s “failed education system“.
“Our system needs to train you in not only what to know, but how to think about information and knowledge and evidence,” Tyson says.
“If you don’t have that kind of training, you’d run around believing anything.”

Kneel De Gasbag Tyson is right!
He says “the rise of flat earth theory indicates two things: the right to free speech, and America’s “failed education system“.
But he’s also a gate keeper….talking of free speech while taking part in various false narratives, and helping keep life saving information from many around the world.
The hypocrite is and has been a staunch supporter of “failed education” in various ways. Here is information that his handlers will not allow him to discuss….yet sorely needs to be discussed around the globe….

The above information has shut the mouths of many a Gasbag like tyson, except when these neophytes are pontificating about “free speech” and “failed education”. Many a cheaply purchased and spineless, pseudo intellectual dolt will flap their lips with their own wind….while ignorantly ignoring the winds of change around the planet.
Such ‘strategic ignorance’ has a fool for a strategist, and as time, what remains, will tell….
“There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed”.
Good Journeys
Brother Turdsess is right. I enjoy reading his comments because he is so much smarter than all of these astrophysists. And I love the way he calls people names that he doesn’t agree with. Because they are all stupid, and he isn’t.
In all honesty. Believing the Earth is a sphere or flat is no different from believing in God. It’s all faith based. In reality, if you believe in either theory without evidence or proof of the theory, you are crazy. You’re believing something just because the establishment told you what to believe and nothing more. The only true way you will ever know the truth is hopping in a vehicle and flying up and up and either entering outer space or crashing into the dome.

So where is the video Neil? You have never shown one yet.
Well no shit… A friend of mine a flat Earther himself told me the proof the earth is flat is that the curve of Earth don’t obstruct the view of any object. These are my words not his btw just to simplify the matter. I grew up on lake Erie on the weekends and summers. I have seen ships just come into view because before they got close enough and the curve of Earth obstructed the view. I tried to explain to him that this entire flat Earth theory was propegated by the CIA as a psyop but he was so set in his belief he would hear none of it. He doesn’t understand that that is the entire point of the psyop.
