If you think the Earth is plane , then you ’re on the untimely web site . Seriously , what are you doing here ? Why are n’t you guess to the icy mountainous flange around the edges , courageously peeking underneath and seeing what ’s on the other side of this galactic space Frisbee ?
Incidentally , somewhere else that you do n’t bear to see flat Earth peons is on Elon Musk ’s Twitter profile – but this is 2017 , where logic is about as relevant as witchcraft .
Musk , a man have it away for his cosmic ventures , giant battery , and curious , pun - filled tweet threads , openly wonder the other solar day why there is n’t a Flat Mars Society . After all , there ’s a Flat Earth Society , whose adherent are just asoddas you ’d await them to be . Is Earth the only planet that ’s flat ?
Well , noblewoman and gentlemen , we have an enormous , secret plan - transfer spoiler for you . The prescribed Twitter account of the Flat Earth Society respond to Musk ’s tweet , and they have take that Mars , unlike the Earth , is absolutely , in spades orotund .
“ Hi Elon , thanks for the question . Unlike the Earth , Mars has been observed to be orotund . We hope you have a fantastic day ! ”
Well , that ’s cleared that up then . By round , we assume they entail spherical , but round physical object can be flat too – so who knows , really .
Weirder still , when prompted by a skeptical societal media user ’s use of a gif showing the Earth spin around on its axis vertebra , the Flat Earth Society chronicle reply with an obtuseStar Warsreference .
“ No ! Alderaan is peaceful , we have no weapon system . You ca n’t possibly – ” it interpret . Are they indicate that our presumably insipid Earth is about to be destroyed by the Death Star ? It ’s more likely that they ’re implying that photographs of Earth that we see every day are simply fabrications – but either way , this is all fabulously strange .
If Mars is round or spherical , are all the other planets also round and spheric too ? Are they indicate that Earth ’s the only flat planet in existence ? Oh , so many doubtfulness .
