Hello!
Despite SpaceX's Fram2 mission astronauts sharing clear footage of Earth's roundness, Flat Earth enthusiasts persist in their beliefs. On April 1 at approximately 9:46 PM, a Falcon 9 rocket carrying a SpaceX Dragon launched successfully from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
The Fram2 crew orbited over Earth's polar regions multiple times daily, capturing stunning visuals. SpaceX posted on Twitter, revealing Dragon's "first views of Earth's polar regions."
Additional footage included a timelapse from Antarctica to the Arctic and a video soaring over the launch site, all showcasing Earth's undeniable sphericity. The breathtaking imagery has sparked widespread mockery of Flat Earth claims.

Social media users quickly pounced on the SpaceX Fram2 videos, gleefully challenging Flat Earthers, who insist Earth is a flat plane or disk rather than a round oblate spheroid.
Comments flooded in: one user declared, "Bad day for flat Earthers." Another remarked, "How amazing does that look. I suppose it throws the 'flat earth theory' completely out the door."
A third jabbed, "Splain this @FlatEarthZone." A fourth exclaimed, "Holy curvature!!! Amazing sharp quality SpaceX!!! The flat earthers career is literally over! LEns tHE fISh LeNs…."
A fifth wondered, "Where are the flat earthers? Are they like really mad right now? This footage is really beautiful." Yet, Flat Earthers remain undeterred, with some hitting the comments to dispute the footage, refusing to concede their theory's flaws.

Flat Earthers pushed back against the SpaceX Fram2 footage with skepticism.
One commented, "Looks so deep fake."
Another ranted, "In shambles my a**!! Complete the circle, are we in another ice age lmao, why is half the Earth covered in ice. Stop using curved lenses!!"
A third claimed, "It's too easy to edit this sort of footage," while a fourth dismissed it, saying, "We've seen CGI before. Not impressed." Meanwhile, the Fram2 mission safely concluded, with SpaceX tweeting, "All four framonauts have safely exited Dragon unassisted." In response to the Flat Earth backlash, one user quipped, "When will SpaceX have special missions to fly flat earthers to space to finally shut them up?"
So, how about it Elon?
