> The rapper, real name Bobby Ray Simons, is a vocal flat-earther and previously clashed with renowned physicist [Neil DeGrasse Tyson on Twitter in 2016](http://www.nme.com/blogs/nme-blogs/bob-vs-neil-degrasse-tyson-raps-maddest-ever-beef-11593)after sharing a photo to support his unusual belief.
> 
> Now, he’s gone one step further and launched a GoFundMe page to raise money for satellites that will be sent into space to show him the curve of the Earth and disprove his beliefs.
> 
> In a brief video posted on the page, he says: “What’s up y’all, it’s Flat Earth Bob here. I’m starting this GoFundMe because I would like to send one, if not multiple satellites as far into space as I can, or into orbit as I can, to find the curve. I’m looking for the curve.”
> 
> The campaign was seemingly launched after the rapper spotted the idea on Twitter.
> 
> “I want to see a reality show where people who think the earth is flat try to find the edge”, Twitter user John Binning wrote.
> 
> Tim Pastoor replied: “They’re always asking for an experiment they can do from home, so here’s one: Crowdfund a satellite and go look for the edge.”

Sir Terry Pratchett had it bang on. We live on a flat disc sat on the shoulders of four elephants on the back of a turtle swimming through space.
