- The "Flat Earth" 2.0 (The Dome Theory)
A newer branch of flat-Earth cosmology suggesting that the world is not only flat but enclosed inside a bounded, living, or organism-like system. In this version, the “firmament” becomes less a simple dome and more a membrane, boundary layer, or cellular wall separating humanity from a larger external reality.
- The Flat Earth Wall in the Arctic
The Flat Earth Wall in the Arctic theory claimed that late-1940s polar flights, especially 1948 North Pole operations, were falsified to conceal the true structure of the far north. In the theory, the Arctic was not a navigable region over a spherical globe but a guarded edge, an inward-curving wall, or the lip of a polar opening that aviation records had to disguise.
- The Flat Earth Antarctic Wall
This theory was a twentieth-century revival of older flat-earth cosmology in which the world was imagined as a disk bounded by a ring of ice. In revivalist form, the Antarctic became not a continent at the bottom of a globe but the perimeter wall of the world, sometimes said to be inaccessible because states or navies guarded it. In the 1930s, flat-earth preaching and anti-scientific religious broadcasting kept disk-world ideas in circulation, especially in the orbit of Wilbur Glenn Voliva. Later military activity in Antarctica, particularly postwar U.S. Navy operations, was folded back into the older ice-wall map and used as proof that the boundary was being patrolled.
