This story was originally published on Smarter Than That in 2008. We are republishing a lightly edited version on Popular Science in light of recent interest in the subject.

Humanity has known Earth is round for a few millenia, and I've been meaning to show more methods that prove the world is not flat. I've had a few ideas on how to do that, but recently got an interesting incentive, when Phil Plait, The Bad Astronomer, wrote about a recently published BBC article about "The Flat Earth" society. (Most recently, rapper B.o.B. went on a Twitter rant on the topic.) Phil claims it's ridiculous to even bother rebutting the Flat Earth Society—and I tend to agree. But the history of our species' intellectual pursuit is important and interesting. You don't need to denounce all science and knowledge and believe in a kooky conspiracy theory to enjoy some historical factoids about humanity's quest for space.
