Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson Debunks Flat Earth Theory on 'New Heights' Podcast with Jason and Travis Kelce
Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson recently appeared on the 'New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce' podcast, where he addressed and debunked the flat Earth theory. During the discussion, Tyson provided simple explanations to Jason and Travis Kelce, including using football games as a practical example. He pointed out that the observation of multiple games being played simultaneously across different time zones, with some in daylight and others in darkness, is clear evidence of a round Earth. Tyson also suggested a simple experiment: lying on a beach facing the sunset and then immediately standing up to see the sun rise again, demonstrating the Earth's curvature. This conversation arose from Jason Kelce mentioning that the flat Earth theory is still discussed in NFL locker rooms, despite being widely debunked.
