In this episode, we explore the origins of Flat Earth theories, tracing them back to ancient civilizations like the Babylonians and Egyptians. We discuss how early observations and myths led to the belief in a flat Earth and how this view persisted through the ages. We highlight key contributions from Greek philosophers such as Pythagoras and Aristotle, and the groundbreaking work of Eratosthenes in demonstrating the Earth's curvature. Despite scientific advancements and evidence from the heliocentric model, Flat Earth theories have resurfaced in modern times, fueled by pseudoscience, the internet, and social media. We examine the psychological and sociological factors that contribute to the persistence and appeal of these theories today.
