Flat earther launch9/20/2023 ![]() He would never have made it to that altitude in a homemade rocket. He would actually have needed to be at roughly 62 miles above the Earth at a spot called the Kármán line, which is where the sky ends and space begins. Even if he did make it to 5,000 feet, he would not have been able to prove (or disprove) the flat earth theory. Here is the issue with Hughes' attempted flight. Why anyone who seeks to disprove something that is not up for debate gets airtime on the " Science Channel" is an answer only the network can make. Others, less serious, are just doubtful of science in general and don't believe what they don't see with their own eyes. Some self-professed Flat Earthers are really serious in their beliefs, often motivated by religion, pseudoscience or conspiracy theories. These groups began cropping up again in the middle of the 20th century, after a comfortable dormancy when Pythagoras posited it in Greece around 500 BC. Mad Mike Hughes is a proud 61-year-old flat-Earther (meaning that he believes the Earth to be a flat disc, not a sphere) he’s also the self-proclaimed world’s most famous limousine driver and a self-taught rocket scientist, as well as a man with goals. So what do "Flat Earthers" believe? Modern flat Earth conspiracy theorists believe that the Earth is flat, disputing the Earth's spherical shape, despite photos from space and other planets appearing to us through telescopes as spheres.
