An American scientist is going to try and prove his belief that the Earth is flat. The man’s name is Mike Hughes and he is 61 years old. He is a flat-Earther – someone who believes that the Earth is flat and not round. He has been interested in science for many years and taught himself how to make a rocket. He will get into his rocket on Saturday and fire it hundreds of meters in the air. The rocket cost Mr Hughes $20,000 to make. Hughes said it is powered by steam and can fly at 800 km(per)h. He told reporters why he made his rocket. He said: “I like to do extraordinary things that no one else can do. No one in the history of mankind has designed, built and launched himself in his own rocket.”
