STEM Grads Hope For Careers Working On Conspiracy To Hide Flat-Earth Truth

Updated: Nov 10, 2022

Bright, young minds set their sights on a lifetime of lying to friends, family and everyone else, all the time.

As Science, Technology, Engineering and Math gain ever-increasing focus as the skills for the future, Eons News spoke with some college students in STEM fields for their perspectives. One thing many of these eager young people had in common was a lifelong dream to learn about the world and then lie to everyone about it.

Looking up at the night sky as a child, Jakob Rogers remembers feeling a sense of awe and wonder about the cosmos and his planet's place within it. But what hit him most potently was an overwhelming desire to do something diabolical with his life. In his teens, Rogers came across a video on the internet from some guy explaining how the Earth is not a globe, but a round disc, and that NASA is one of a handful of powerful groups who were hiding this from the world. “this Youtuber who goes by ‘Flat_Earth_Rick’ clued me in to the fact that the National Aeronautics and Space Administration is not an organization created by the most innovative and courageous country in the world to help us stay at the forefront of technical fields that are closely tied to maintaining economic and military power. It's not a place that hires our best scientists and engineers to help blaze new trails in aircraft technology and space exploration. Instead, it's a mysterious and dangerous cabal of conscripts unencumbered by any sense of truth and honor. He opened my eyes to see these tens of thousands of professionals as something more than people working hard to make a career in a field that they find rewarding. They actually must be kind of superhuman because they can be both super smart and super stupid. Because if Flat_Earth_Rick is making a claim that depends on the NASA folks being ruthlessly cunning and effective deceivers, whose sole mission is to maintain the lie that the Earth is round, then that’s what they are. But a little later in his video, if another claim he is making needs these same people to be buffoons who don’t understand things anyone can see by looking outside at the Sun or the Moon, that’s what they become. Amazing. It was a no-brainer for me; I wanted to become one of these magical evil people who can switch between being wicked smart or dumb as a rock, at will. So I was going to go to college and then I would join NASA".

I wanted to become one of these magical evil people who can switch between being wicked smart or dumb as a rock, at will.

Later, in his final semester earning his Master of Science in Astrophysics from Carolsburg University, Rogers reflected on his studies: “I was a bit disappointed that we didn’t get any of that ‘forcing propagandistic round-Earth scientific dogma down our throats’ that Flat_Earth_Rick promised me all the Universities do. I thought I was going to sail through by just nodding my head unquestioningly and writing the ‘approved’ round-Earth ‘facts’ down on the tests. But it was actually a lot of hard work. Sure, I had to learn some facts, but most of it was learning the best scientific tools. The methods that humankind struggled and fought over centuries to develop specifically to throw off the shackles of dogma and superstition and get closer to the truth. You know, like how to develop and test a hypothesis, the importance of falsifiability, the requirement for all claims to be substantiated, how to identify and eliminate sources of bias. All that stuff. And that was after I had to take a bunch of foundational courses in calculus, physics, chemistry and stuff“. Rogers says it was a marathon getting through those six years of higher education and that now, he can’t wait to start work at NASA. “I have to admit Flat_Earth_Rick, and others like him, were way off base about how college works. That tested my faith in their flat Earth narrative. But I persevered. I created a vision of my future self to keep me focused. It’s me wearing a NASA polo shirt and walking around in public looking like a regular professional adult, but secretly inside I’m doing that cliché “mwahaha” Hollywood villain laugh."

Now that Rogers has submitted his application and been invited for an interview, he’s a step closer to making that vision a reality. “I can’t wait for my first day at NASA. I wonder when they tell their new-hires the big flat Earth secret. Maybe they’ll even hint at it during the interview with a smirk and a wink? Or have us all go deep underground to an ultra-secret evil lair? Maybe they use special code words to make sure none of the hundreds of thousands of emails they must exchange every single day internally and with external industry partners, subcontractors, parts suppliers, consultants, and congresspeople ever accidentally mentions the flat Earth conspiracy? I can’t wait to hear how eclipses work on the flat Earth. If the Earth is truly a flat disc and the Sun and Moon are small objects that fly around above it, we should be able to use that model to predict eclipses better than the round-earth model. That’s a tall order, given that the round-Earth model predicts them down to the second every single time, and tells us exactly from where on earth they will be visible. So I can’t wait to hear how they do that. And I wonder how they keep all the digital data about the flat Earth hidden from all the employees that don’t have a Secret or Top Secret security clearance. There must be flat-Earth maps, data about how weather patterns and hurricanes work on a flat Earth, an explanation of what the heck a sunset even means on a flat Earth. I guess they must have a password-protected server where they store all of that. Ooh, my password is going to be ‘globeTard$’ hahaaa’.

Rogers went on to describe a less technical subject in which he hopes to gain some insight once he’s “on the inside”, as he puts it. “One of the elective classes I took at college was called Introduction to Contract Law. I can’t wait to read a copy of the contract between NASA and Space-X that says ‘NASA hereby leases launch pad 39A at the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida to Space-X so that Space-X can spend hundreds of millions of dollars building a launch structure there. NASA permits Space-X to launch dozens of multi-million-dollar rockets a year that don’t actually go to space because there is no such thing as space. There are just twinkling lights on a crystal dome above the Earth that just happen to move precisely the way they would move if we were in fact on a globe-shaped planet that was rotating in a universe full of stars and planets. A dome that we (NASA and the free masons and whoever else) are trying to hide from people because somehow if they don’t believe in the flat Earth and the dome they won’t believe in our version of God. Never mind that hardly anybody that already believes in our version of God believes in a flat Earth and a dome. And Space-X may pretend to launch a network of their Starlink satellites from our NASA property and sell ‘satellite-based internet service’. But of course, in this context, ‘satellite’ means ‘a thing that orbits Earth’. But nothing orbits the flat Earth. So NASA wishes Space-X good luck with the class-action lawsuit and the criminal charges they’re going to face for signing fraudulent contracts with tens of thousands of people”.

Abigail Sharperson recently completed a degree in Communication Systems at Arizona College of Technology. "Lying has been an important value in my family for generations. I really hope to be able to carry on that tradition as part of my career”. She says she met a man at a party who showed her some videos about the flat Earth conspiracy and was inspired that this might be her calling.

Sharperson was immediately impressed by how buzzwords like refraction, magnetism, and perspective were used in support of claims that anyone who educates themselves for just a few minutes on these topics can identify as total nonsense from ten miles away. Referring to the graphics in the video illustrating the layout and dynamics of the flat Earth, she noted that actual scientists often use simplified illustrations to explain complex ideas that have been discovered through rigorous investigation. But she appreciated this video creator’s efficient strategy of just jumping straight to an illustration before making sure it has any basis in fact.

“I can do all that boring, technical, science stuff that people who really care about finding the truth have to do. But honestly, I liked how this guy skipped all that and focused on storytelling. He didn't show any calculations based on well-understood principles of physics. He didn't check his answers with any independent methods. He didn't use his hypothetical model of the Earth-Sun-Moon system to make a precise prediction that would only be true if his model was right and then test it. He made a diagram whose conclusion depends on getting the scale right, and he didn't get the scale right. He didn't ask anyone who actually studies this stuff as a career. The way he made this huge leap from ‘I don’t understand this phenomenon about the physical world’ to ‘the United Nations is conducting a plot of monumental scale to deceive us on this topic’ really impressed me.” Sharperson acknowledged that the man had shown no evidence that this was actually happening, but his confident assertions based on his assumed motivations convinced her. “I figured if the UN is investing all these resources in this, it must somehow be really important to keep it going and I wanted to help. So I submitted my application to the UN that very day”.

As an Information Security major at Huffman University, Ali Zahir is impressed by how the flat-Earth conspirators control this juicy secret so extremely well over such a long time, across so many people, languages, cultures, governments and companies. He sees a career in this global plot as a chance to be a part of something bigger than himself, and would be happy working for any participating group. "The sheer scale of this security achievement is mind-boggling. I mean, just think of all the organizations in the world where either a) everyone working there knows the flat Earth secret and is willing to spend their whole career lying to hide this fact, or b) some people who work there are allowed to know and some aren't allowed to know, but none of the ones who aren't allowed to know accidentally find out about the secret and blow the whistle." Zahir went on listing just a fraction of the organizations where either his option a) or b) must be happening, flawlessly, 24-7, 365, for decades:

Every space agency of every government, which asks for money from their nation’s taxpayers and has to demonstrate to their nation’s legislative body that they’re spending billions of taxpayer dollars on important and useful things: America’s NASA, the German DLR, the European Space Agency, Russia’s RosCosmos, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, the Italian Space Agency, the Indian Space Research Agency, etc.

Every single one of the hundreds of universities that offers courses in astronomy, astrophysics, rocket design, spacecraft propulsion and navigation, orbital mechanics, geology, atmospheric science, satellite communications, etc.

Every single private company that does anything related to launching rockets and sending people or things into space to orbit the Earth or go beyond it: Space-X, Blue Origin, Lockheed-Martin, Boeing, United Space Alliance and United Launch Alliance, Virgin Galactic, Sierra Nevada Corporation, Orbital Sciences Corporation, Northrop-Grumman, Scaled Composites, ABL Space Systems, Agnikul Cosmos, ARCA Space, Astra Space, Bellatrix Aerospace, BluShift Aerospace, Borneo SubOrbitals, Canadian Arrow, Exos Aerospace, Equatorial Space Systems, General Astronautics, Generation Orbit, Independence-X Aerospace, Interorbital Systems, Interstellar Technologies, Isar Aerospace, Leaf Space, Mishaal Aerospace, OneSpace, Orbex, OrbitX, Orbital Transport & Raketen AG, Perigee Aerospace, PLD Space, Relativity Space, Rocket Crafters, Rocket Lab, RocketStar, Rocket Factory Augsburg, Skyroot Aerospace, Skyrora, Space Services Inc., Space Pioneer, Success Rockets, UP Aerospace, Vector Launch, Virgin Orbit, Zero2infinity (1)

Every airline, air force, naval force, and ocean freight shipping company that has to figure out the time and fuel needed for their planes and ships to travel between various cities on Earth (because on the most common flat-Earth map the distances in the southern hemisphere are 2, 3 or 4 times as long as they are on the globe earth because it’s all stretched out).

Zahir continued explaining what impressed him so much: "And none of the employees that work at these places ever sue for emotional damage for being made to lie to their friends, family, and the public for decades. There are no leaked classified documents that show the Earth is really flat, no intercepted text messages, no emails, no flat-Earth training materials, no copies of secret flat-Earth maps with actual distances marked to help people navigate, no prime-time tell-all news special featuring an insider who got sick of the scam and quit, no Edward Snowden-type whistleblower who sacrificed themselves to get the truth out there, no anonymous tip to the press that resulted in a Pulitzer-prize-winning expose. Now that is a seriously crazy achievement in information security and the manipulation of people. I'd be proud to join up with any one of these organizations."

Seriously Though

The flat-Earth conspiracy theory utterly fails with just the slightest application of logical and scientific scrutiny (see links below). But think about the "everyone is lying" aspect for a minute. NASA and all the organizations listed above are made up of people: engineers, scientists, technicians, attorneys, human resources managers, IT administrators, online content developers, and so on. If you were a person working for one of these groups and you were asked to hide a huge secret, what are the chances that you would blow the whistle and publicly reveal this scandal? 90%? 50%? 10%? 1%? What about only 0.1% (a one in one thousand chance)? NASA alone has about 17,000 employees, so let’s be really conservative and say the whole list has just 100,000 employees. Now let’s assume that only a quarter of them, or 25,000 people, know the “secret” that the Earth is flat, and only one in one thousand of those 25,000 people has enough courage to call BS and leak it somehow, either openly or anonymously. That means we'd expect 25 whistleblowers out of the people that currently work for these groups (25,000 divided by 1000 = 25), let alone all the people that have worked there in the past. Think of how easy it would be for a person to write an anonymous letter to all the best investigative reporters saying "I work at NASA (or wherever). The Earth is flat, and here are some names of people that work at NASA (or wherever) that are most directly in charge of the round Earth lie". It would have ripped through the scandal-hungry news long, long ago. But how many whistleblowers do we actually have? Not even one.
