The weirdest thing is, the conspiracy theorists are taking this as a fact that we will never ever have the technology to travel further. Well, humanity has managed to do that just fine, isn't it? There indeed is a bigger world out there, and we have explored our backyard, the Moon, and a little more than that (Mars) so far.

(I'm getting a bit off-track here). We are not going to be stuck on this planet forever, even if we are to treasure it. In 5 billion years, we will have to move anyway, so the idea that space is fake, also feels wrong.

Anyway, just like others have said... why would you want to spend millions or billions to fake out something when you can do it for real? There have been many theories along the way, such as "the flag flying in the wind", when it actually was just the matter of the flag being positioned that way so that it won't droop down on a windless Moon.

I also wonder what would happen if the Soviets are to do the landing first... will we get the same set of theories? And hey, if they were fake, Soviets would use that opportunity to embarrass USA, isn't it?

Either way, I am just saddened that we don't have the actual high-definition recording, as explained here:

Sending live video of the moon landing back to the world was a huge priority. Otherwise, [conspiracy theorists] the globe over would think the whole thing was a fraud, and no one would want that to happen, right? But there was a problem -- the technology used to film Apollo 11 was called SSTV, and it was like the HDTV of the Space Age. Meanwhile, most of us on planet Earth were watching primitive TVs that made everything look like the viewer had glaucoma. So NASA pulled off a neat translation trick. The original crystal-clear images were translated into the grainier, ghost-like video that we all know and love.

That was what the people at home saw. But the people at NASA saw pictures so clear you could swim in them. It wasn't until years and years later that anyone realized, hold up, that original footage was still out there, waiting to be revealed to the world.

Except it wasn't. After an exhaustive multi-year search, the official report was that, yep, the tapes had been taped over, presumably by an engineer eager not to miss an episode of Bosom Buddies. But a bright spot was also discovered. When NASA originally did the moon thing, a tracking station in Australia recorded the SSTV signal. And they made backup copies. The originals were shipped to NASA ...

... and were also erased. Also, most of the backups were sent to NASA. And, uh, erased. But there still could still be some out there. Just waiting for someone to find them, and probably erase them.

I'm pretty sure leaving trash on the moon wouldn't affect its climate, since you know the moon is just rocks.

The moon landing was fake. But because they hired a professional director, they went to the moon to shoot it.

The moon landing was fake.

Fake at being fake — It was real. They had parallel sun rays and shadows casted on the moon, which is something impossible to display with a single small light source like those on studio sets. The lines would instead, in the latter, diverge.

Not to mention, space agencies around the world recognised the moon landing. Even the Soviets who were the United States’ enemy in almost everything back in the late 60s — why would they ever not try to expose a fake? Unless it’s real.

To be fair they did win the space race since they were the first ones to send a object into space.
