For them, it does!
Watch this video of a "scientific flat earther" (as opposed to a religious one) explain how.

I think someone asked in the thread why flat earthers think there is a massive conspiracy to delude us, to what end. And I have wondered the same. Well now we have an answer:

Funniest article I have read in a long time!
Self-taught rocket scientist plans to launch over ghost town https://apnews.com/9d8e5e8e9245412ab80f5a1f58d885b7/Self-taught-rocket-scientist-plans-to-launch-over-ghost-town
(to prove the earth is flat)
![](https://storage.googleapis.com/afs-prod/media/media:47827ebd84d9405088d372f2b55afa0c/800.jpeg)
Some gems:
Quote : | "“I don’t believe in science,” said Hughes, whose main sponsor for the rocket is Research Flat Earth. “I know about aerodynamics and fluid dynamics and how things move through the air, about the certain size of rocket nozzles, and thrust. But that’s not science, that’s just a formula. There’s no difference between science and science fiction.”" |
Quote : | "Following his jump, he said he’s going to announce his plans to leap into the race for governor of California." |
Quote : | "His future plans include an excursion into space. He and Stakes have already brainstormed on a “Rockoon,” which is a rocket that, rather than being immediately ignited while on the ground, is carried into the atmosphere by a gas-filled balloon, then separated from the balloon and lit. This rocket will take Hughes about 68 miles up." |
And the place where he has built it is called "Rocket Ranch" and is owned by some dude who says he is building a car to go 2,000 mph on land . Yeah I don't think that's possible. His website is linked in the article above.
He will travel a mile and only reach an altitude of 1,800 feet... yeah that's enough to see whether the earth is flat or or not . Or how about the fact that he can go 30,000 feet in an airplane to China where he can go up to the highest observation deck (on a building) in the world which is at 1,841 feet? Or maybe go up any number of thousands of mountains and cliffs which are higher than he will go?
But building a rocket out of scrap and junk for $20,000 while earning $15/hr as a limo driver is definitely a testament to the greatness of the human mind! That's pretty amazing! I just wish he wasn't an idiotic flat earther.
He built a rocket in 2014 and launched himself... that did not end so well! You can see that here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jU_forLM_s someone please embed
This new launch will be on Saturday and it will be on his YouTube channel, but not live, due to safety reasons.
Another good writeup:
http://www.iflscience.com/space/this-flatearther-is-going-to-launch-himself-in-a-homemade-rocket-on-saturday
Looking forward to it! 11/23/2017 3:28:26 AM

Didn't you read:
Quote : | "Just don’t mention Knievel around Hughes. He’s not a fan.
“He was an average stunt guy,” said Hughes, a former motorcycle racer. “He stole his look from Elvis.”" |
