THERE is an ever-growing community of people who reject scientific wisdom and insist that the world is FLAT. Nathan Thompson, 31, a network marketer based in Orange County, California, set up the Official Flat Earth and Globe Discussion group on Facebook in June 2016. The group **w **w boasts more than 42,000 members and even Nathan has been taken aback by its rapid growth. These â??Flat Earthersâ?? believe that our planet is encircled by a giant, heavily-policed ice wall and that gravity is just an unproven theory. They also claim that NASA is a fraudulent organisation and that all the photographs and video footage we have from space are computer-generated imagery (CGI). And while their views may sound far-fetched, the movement has attracted a number of celebrity adherents in recent months, including rapper B.o.B., former reality TV star Tila Tequila and basketball legend Shaquille Oâ??Neal.
