Flat Kerbin Society

[mikeman7918]

This thread is meant to be a parody of the Flat Earth Society and Flat Earth Theory which is a conspiracy theory that has become surprisingly popular among die hard conspiracy nuts.

In this thread the goal is to prove that Kerbin is flat.  We shall not be deceived by the lies of the Kerbal Spave Center any more!  They have constructed an elaborate conspiracy to hide the true shape of Kerbin so people will give contracts and funds to the space center.

Logical fallacies are welcome, because real flat earthers use them all the time.  Anyone saying that Kerbin is round is a shill payed by the Space Center to defend the conspiracy.  There is no other explenation.

Kerbin is flat because when you put a ruler on the ground, it lies flat.

The kerbal spac center uses their rockets to fire hallucinogenic fumes to the upper atmospere. if you fly up to a certain height, the fumes kick in and yor vision goes curvy. That's why it looks curved. They're hiding the truth that kerbin is a flat disk held up by four snacks on the back of a giant space kraken.

If you look at images from space, they totally look like CGI.  You can't even see the clouds or city lights.

Kerbin -is- flat. The surface repeats infinitely to each direction, that's how it creates the illusion of being able to go around it. The misleading circular shape the kerbonaus see is the infinite flat surface bending space to fit into it.

If Kerbin was round, its diameter would be too small to allow it to have such a large mass and surface gravity. If we assume Kerbin is flat, the diameter is like way bigger so it can fit all that mass in a bigger area. 

[Just Jim]

Well of course Kerbin's flat... it's the rest of the universe that's round... duh!!! 

hehehe

[Frybert]

If Kerbin wasn't flat, the runway would never work.

What kind of space program can build a rocket instantly?  Seriously, you give them a contract and 3 seconds later they have a new rocket launching.  How would they do that if they were a real space program?  This is clearly a conspiracy run by Werner Von Kerman.  All these conspirators are Kraken worshippers.

[Sanic]

  Kerbin has absurdly high gravity for its size. It's supposed 'magical density' is actually just a lie told by the space program to cover up the fact that Kerbin is really a flat disk flying upwards at 9.81 m/sec.

If Kerbin were really round like we are told then we would expect to see tides caused by Munar gravity, but tides don't exist.

This isn't due to Kerbin's flatness. The reason there are no tides is because the Mun is just painted onto the great blanket that the gods throw onto the sky-dome every night. It doesn't have gravity, it's just the eye of the Mun-goddess who looks over Kerbalkind. The stars are holes made by the Kraken trying to get into the mortal world, but the gods always prevent him. One time the Kraken did get through, but the gods stitched the blanket back together, and made the milky way.

Here is some more proof that Kerbin is flat.  We are told that the moons of Jool orbit because of gravity, but they seem to ignore all gravity exept that of Jool.  If the N body probelem is accounted for, then the Jool system becomes very unstable as shown by this simulation:

Kerbin is flat because KSP is a computer game displayed on a flat screen! Everything in the game is two-dimensional!

(way to bust the fourth wall, genius.....)

[Snowstorm]

Kerbin is flat because everyone who ever went up there never returned, so we therefore have no proof.

[Tex]

Kerbin is flat because every map of it is flat. Even when put on a globe, it's still just a map wrapped around a sphere, not a true representation.

Next you'll want us to take either the red pill or the blue pill....

 

Regardless, everyone KNOWS Kerbin is flat, simply because my copy of a 2000-year-old text says so!

Hey! I know that text! Is it the same one that said that full Mun's cause portals to another dimension inside the sun?

Of course not! Red pill or blue pill. Ha!

I want you to take the PURPLE pill. In between red and blue. Take a peek into the other world--but remain in your current one. Step back and contemplate what you've seen, rather than simply jumping headlong into it, which as we've seen tends to make people puke all over the carpet.....

Yup. That is totally from KSP. See how flat Kerbin is? Wake up, sheeple! The Kluminati are trying to trick you into believing Kerbin is round so that they can profit and take over the world!

[ThaZeus]

Lets get this moving again!  Kerbin is flat because is you fly in a plane with infinite fuel you fly flat! Eventually it runs out of ground to generate and rests which is why you see the ksc again!

[Spaceception]

Kerbin is flat! The Sun isn't really far away, it's circling Kerbin 100 km up, and it's only 1 km wide!!

[mikeman7918]

Did you know that most "moons" and some "planets" were thought to be smudges on the telescope when they were first discovered?  That's because they were.  The other "planets" don't exist.

[Delfinus]

The Mun landings were faked! The Mun is far too close with far too much gravity to exist, and it's orbit is highly unrealistic, it cannot exist at the orbit it is, and it's unlikely a natural object would get into that orbit, and my calculations show that it appears smaller in the sky than it should, This is evidence that what really exists at the Mun's orbit is a Space Station with a projector projecting a hologram of a imaginary Moon that we believe is the Mun, Minmus is Kerbins only Moon! And you know how Duna is easily reached but there has supposedly never been a landing there? That's because the Space Program doesn't want to reveal that they have a soundstage located there that they used to fake the Mun landings! That's right Jeb, you're not the first Kerbal on the Mun, just some stupid actor they shipped up to Duna to fake a Mun landing!
