The formalisation of mathematics by use of theorem provers has reached the stage where previously questioned mathematical proofs have been formalised. However, sceptics will argue that lingering doubts remain about the efficacy of these formalisations. In this paper we motivate and describe a capability for addressing such concerns. We concentrate on the nearly-complete Flyspeck Project, which uses the HOL Light system to formalise the Kepler Conjecture proof. We first explain why a sceptic might doubt the formalisation. We go on to explain how the formal proof can be ported to the highly-trustworthy HOL Zero system and then independently audited, thus resolving any doubts.
