ABOUT US

A Community Built on Independent Inquiry

Flat Earth People started as a small forum for people who wanted to test claims for themselves. It has grown into a global community of researchers, skeptics, and curious minds.

Our Story

Why We Started

Flat Earth People was founded by a small group of hobbyist researchers who were frustrated with how online debates on this topic usually went — long on mockery, short on actual testing. We wanted a place where anyone could propose an experiment, run it, publish the raw results, and have those results checked by others.

What began as a handful of forum threads has grown into a structured community with a research archive, a video library, and a live events calendar. We remain independent, member-supported, and open to anyone willing to engage in good faith.

What We Stand For

Our Values

🔍

Evidence First

Every claim we publish is expected to come with a method, raw data, and a way for others to check it.

🤝

Open to Challenge

We publish counterarguments and corrections alongside our own research, not just the parts that confirm our views.

🛡️

No Ridicule Policy

Members and guests are expected to engage respectfully. Mockery of sincere questions is not welcome here.
