The theory that the world is flat gained so much popularity online that this year 500 people gathered for the first ever International Flat Earth Conference.
Sold out since May, the conference brought together hundreds of people who had before only really interacted online.
It was an opportunity for believers to network, share research, meet thought leaders, find a flat-earth compatible mate, show off various NASA parody t-shirts, and talk shit about Neil deGrasse Tyson.
