Man Out to Prove the World Is Flat Crashes Homemade Rocket

On March 24, 2018, flat-earther Mike Hughes set out to prove that the Earth is shaped like a Frisbee. The plan: Strap himself to a homemade steam-powered rocket and launch 52 miles into the sky above California’s Mojave Desert, where he'd see Earth's shape with his own eyes.

The attempt, ultimately, was a flop. He fell back to Earth with minor injuries after reaching 1875 feet—not even as high as the tip of One World Trade Center. For the cost of his rocket stunt ($20,000), Hughes could have easily flown around the world on a commercial airliner at 35,000 feet.
