🌍 The Incident
On Monday morning, NASA announced that an astronaut had gone “missing” during a routine spacewalk outside the International Space Station. But insiders leaked a very different version of events:
The astronaut reportedly floated a bit too far and slipped right off the edge of the Earth.
“One minute he was tightening a bolt, the next minute he just… whoosh… straight over the rim,” said a whistleblower technician.
🎥 The Cover-Up
NASA quickly released a statement calling it a “technical failure” with the astronaut’s tether. However, leaked footage shows the astronaut plummeting into the abyss while muttering:
“Wait… this isn’t how gravity is supposed to work!”
Within hours, the video was scrubbed from the internet and replaced with CGI “spacewalk” animations — complete with suspicious bubbles floating in the background.
🧠 Flat Earth Society Responds
Flat Earth Society members were quick to react:
-
“We told you there’s an edge. Now one of their own has proven it.”
-
“They can’t hide the Dome, the Firmament, or the Great Drop any longer.”
-
Memes flooded social media showing the astronaut falling with captions like: “Should’ve worn a parachute.”
🚨 Final Thought
NASA insists the astronaut “will be remembered as a hero of exploration,” but flat earthers say he’ll be remembered as the first man to discover what happens when you mess with the edge.
And the moral of the story? Don’t lean too far over the side.
