Let's be honest, if real, we'd have all figured this program was made in America.

I just pictured their gantry and space bubble thing hang over the side of discworld

Exactly where I went to. All to confirm the great atuins sex.

Rincewald and Two-flowers, they're the bestest of friends!

You cannot fall off the earth silly. There's an impenetrable dome, guarded by NASA agents stationed all around the globe. Besides, there's nothing beyond the dome. Space is fake and everything you see in the sky is either within the dome or on its inner surface.

SMH normies can't get the most obvious stuff right.

The true innovation will come in form of a cat-assisted launch, which gets the rocket dropped off the edge much quicker and environmentally friendly (the only expenditure is cat treats)

This is reminding me so hard of an old webcomic I read like a decade ago about this witch girl who fell off her world and discovered hers was one of many flat, triangular worlds in the cosmos but I cannot for the life of me find it.

It's so nice that the books full of wizards have a real scientific program to understand their flat world.

Does flat not mean level?

Maybe MASA beveled the edge here.

Oh, good point. Or Stanley Kubrick?

I don't think he's been certified on the required equipment for such a task.

There are a few different flat earth hypothesis. One of them is the great ice wall, a wall of ice ringing the flat earth, which is what keeps the oceans on the earth

I'm pretty sure that's what the comic is referencing, an expedition that got to the other side of the ice wall

TIL!

Literally Discworld

(See: The Colour of Magic)

Now I have a sad. GNU STP

The great A'Tuin never sexes. The disc would fall off.

Nope. They have similar meanings tho. Flat means no bumps, level means not askew. Picture a flat surface that is at an angle. A ramp, if you will. It's not level, but it's flat.

I'm sure curved things can be level too, but I'm not a woodologist

One team of cat knocks off the rocket, the other team of cat pounces as the rocket goes over the edge.

Like so

Perfectly catculated
