![]() Many ancient cultures subscribed to a flat Earth cosmography, including Greece until the classical period, the Bronze Age and Iron Age civilizations of the Near East until the Hellenistic period, India until the Gupta period (early centuries AD), and China until the 17th century. So they claim the Space Shuttle Challenger was blown up deliberately in 1986 but with nobody on board and reckon all seven crew members are alive and well to this day.The flat Earth model is an archaic conception of Earth’s shape as a plane or disk. The pair even believe space disasters were faked to finesse the illusion. Vic claims some astronauts have actually been killed because they ‘knew too much and were going to spill the beans’. ■ Our sun is not 93m miles away but much closer – and could be manmadeĬhester Flat Earthers believe scientists and the 500-plus people who have been to space are part of the conspiracy having signed the Official Secrets Act and been paid to keep quiet. ■ The moon exists but isn’t a solid object ■ An astronaut’s hand and objects disappear in videos revealing flaws in the faked footage ■ Video shot through the ISS window appears to show a fly buzzing around in space ■ Footage of astronauts outside the ISS are actually made under water – with one clip accidentally revealing a man wearing a snorkel and scuba tank ■ Videos in the International Space Station are made in a secret studio ■ A photo of a moon buggy is fake because it is dust free and ‘clean as a whistle’ Vic and his fellow Flat Earther John, 49, who does not wish to give his full name, offer the following claims: It’s become an absolute joke – from hammering in the plaque, the shadows are wrong. For anybody to look at the information for five minutes would know. ”Lots and lots of people come to us knowing we didn’t go to the moon – that’s silly. “From the ISS, which is fake, they’ve a got a picture of the earth, which is fake, moving round but there are no images of the earth spinning round in space at all,” said Vic. Vic Button from the Chester Flat Earth Group. How do they get through that?”īut haven’t we got pictures of the moon landings and of views of the earth taken from the moon and the International Space Station? What about the fuel for it? And how can we get past the Van Allen belt, all scientists agree there’s a Van Allen belt, with fantastic temperatures. They have to say that for the distances they’re saying they’d have to go. “When you research it you think rockets can’t do 25,000 mph, seven miles per second, it’s just ridiculous. You go home and you watch Star Wars and all that and rockets going up. They let it go into your head that it was like that and all the books around you. “When you went to school – this is why I can get angry at it – there’s a ball, a globe in the classroom and they never said ‘Oh, also it could be flat or whatever’. I thought straight away, I’ll have to have a look into that. He reported the vessel remained constantly in his view for a full six miles, whereas, had the water surface been curved the top of the mast should have been 11 feet below his line of sight.Īn electrical engineer by trade, Vic explained: “It really intrigued me. He used a telescope held eight inches above the water to watch a boat, with a flag on its mast, row slowly away from him. In 1838 Samuel Rowbotham waded into the Old Bedford River on the Bedford Level of the Cambridgeshire Fens. ![]() So Vic’s interest in the Flat Earth movement was sparked after he came across something on the web about the Bedford Level experiments.Ĭhester Flat Earth Group's version of the world. “My aim now, for life, is to awaken people to what I see as the truth because they have been lied to, deceived on a massive scale.”Ī significant piece of evidence as far as Flat Earthers is concerned is their claim the curvature of the earth is not borne out in reality. ![]() In 2018 Vic sees his mission to boldly promote an opposing vision. Now he regards that show and cultural phenomenons like Star Wars and Star Trek as peddling propaganda. He has only come around to the Flat Earth view over the past few years.Īs a child he recalls excitedly running home from school to listen to the BBC radio series Journey Into Space. “It’s to make you feel as though you are unimportant, a little speck in a massive universe,” says Vic, who is best known for Button’s Electrical stall in Chester Market now run by his son. Space, the planets, the stars, rockets, the moon landings, the International Space Station (ISS) are all fake but presented to the public as real using computer generated images or filmed in secret studios and even underwater.įor Flat Earther Vic Button, 75, from Farndon, it’s one way in which the powerful maintain control.
