It describes how the flat Earth view is enhanced by certain discoveries made during the space age, a time that we are still in, which includes the former race to the Moon between the US and the USSR during the 1960s and early 1970s. Most people accept the global Earth media narrative without question, but the actual configuration of the world is as strange and surprising as it is true.

I guess I have a thing for married women. There’s something about the fact that they’re off limits.

Unlike most adventures, quests, or journeys that started a long time ago - or the old catchphrase “Once upon a time” - this story starts now, in the modern world 2019. If you want to know something, you have technology at your fingertips, ready to spit out any information that you desire. However, what if something isn’t available on a search engine?
