Does anyone know if there is a branch of mathematics that died out because it is just too hard? And if so what makes it so hard?

Yea idk, to me it just seems too fishy. Here's another fail compilation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6PS_bgfBRU

I doubt they've ever left low-earth orbit, but maybe I'm wrong, I do hope I am, it's just too many conflicting stories for me to 100% accept it.

The main argument I've heard for it being real, and I kinda agree with it and it's a pretty strong point that makes me a bit unsure, is the argument that over the years, so many people must have had to cover it up, as well as so many space agencies, countries, etc.

But if you think about it another way. It's actually just 24 people in the history of the earth that has ever "supposedly" left low earth orbit. What I've realized is that it is not really that big of a lie, it's not 100k people that are in on it, it's an extremely small amount of people. What sucks is that you have these NASA engineers who legimately think they're building robots and controlling robots on mars (33million miles away), while you literally lose your connection walking a few blocks from your own home. Low earth orbit is 1200 miles away btw... idk, the word "33million miles" literally just sounds absurd.
