Down the road, he’s intending to build a rocket that takes him to space, so he can snap a picture and see with his own eyes.

“I don’t believe in science,” said Hughes, whose main sponsor for the rocket is Research Flat Earth. “I know about aerodynamics and fluid dynamics and how things move through the air, about the certain size of rocket nozzles, and thrust. But that’s not science, that’s just a formula. There’s no difference between science and science fiction.”

Here's his last flight: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jU_forLM_s

I have only tyme nuff for one reply for this full day so here it is -

1: Cathy lives near the hood where this Steam powered Rocket Man is going to puff up hot air and take a ride - So we need Cathy to report back

2: Rocket Man will indeed PROVE BEYOND A SHADOW OF A DOUBT THE EARTH IS FLAT!!!

Reason is 2000 Feet is his new goal. I suppose it did not dawn on him that he could climb up the easy way to Mount Whitney or find one of many 10,000 foot mountains in California but hey none of them allow Steam Climbing as far as eye no. However from there the Earth is still flat.

Ya need to be up at about 60,000 feet or so to see the Earth look like it might be a ball. So Rocket Man is 58,000 Feet short, but hey who is counting

Ya all have a great Thanksgiving

This won't work due to air resistance.

Just curious: if he were taking this flight for any other reason, would you still wish him dead?
