I hate that this is totally the opposite of how real conspiracy people think.
Edit:clarity
They genuinely believe this is some Capricorn 1 style psyop with an empty rocket. Once the rocket leaves their view, "we're just supposed to trust NASA to tell is what's going on?" Which, sadly, isn't bad logic in is face, but during the Apollo missions, it was possible to use third party radio telemetry to prove they were, at least, in orbit.
Reverse the roles. The standing one is the conspiracy one saying "You see how much money they're willing to spend to fool us?!" That's legit how they think.
Shoutout to Capricorn 1; I’ll have to watch that after Life of Brian (for the “holiday” weekend)
Lol if you think they've been convinced.
They left Kubrick's lucky lens cap up there and that's why gestures broadly we have to get it back
Haha where's this image from? Hahaha like where could I find others?

Don't get too excited, it's just a weird photo shoot.
It would have been nice to have a livestream of the ship’s exterior throughout the duration of the flight.
I understand resources mushed be rationed and that this mission is science-first, but still.

You mean like the NASA continuous livestream showing the outside of Orion ?
Yes, just like that! Why isn’t this front and center? When I checked yesterday, the only stream I could find was a CG visualization and video of Mission Control.
It does flip between a visualization and an actual spacecraft feed tho. So if you're just seeing a CGI capsule, you'll need to wait a bit for a real feed.
Curious if the visualization is done when the feed gets interrupted, or if it's just part of the design.
I'm not a moonlanding conspiracy theorist myself, but in their defense I think the main critique wasn't that it isn’t possible, but that NASA didn't have the technical prowess to pull it off in 1969
"We were all there... we were receiving the signals from the Moon, we were seeing the television. To think it was faked is a complete lack of knowledge of the technology of the time."
- Alexei Leonov, the first human to walk in space and the man the USSR chose to lead their own lunar landing attempt.
If there were even a shred of doubt about the authenticity of the moon landing, the Socialist bloc would've be announcing it loud enough for the world to hear.
Of course. I'm not denying it at all. It happened. I'm just saying i'm pretty sure the main critique was the technology of the time.
Technically it’s only boomeranging around the moon. Walking on the moon is what these conspiracy theorists were unwilling to believe.
What's the conspiracy?
The USSR is still alive and they have a base in the dark side of the moon. The mission is a cover for the secret war that is starting now. Cold War 2.

No that's nazis there, dummy. It's a well known fact, I heard about a documentary of this topic
Source: I made it up
Lies! Try to cover up the truth all you want, but these facts were documented in Battlezone. (https://retroonline.net/Windows/Battlezone) :D
Don’t forget the lizard people!
Sth about fake moon landing I think?
Where are the anti moon landing conspiracy theory folk now. I want to know how this is all bullshit?
Or do they think this one is real?
The last one I saw said "they will never be able to breach the ocean above" They are so so far beyond help, no amount of evidence will convince them. You could literally put one of these people on the moon and they would call it a simulation or something.
Years ago my brother worked for the Obama administration and had a fairly unrestricted access to the Capitol Building.
He took us on a tour.
Every time an actual tour group would come by he’d loudly point at a door and say “and this is where the moon landing was filmed”
idk how many people left that day with a story about how they overheard someone confirming the moon landing was faked … but I hope it is more than a few.
they aren't landing on the moon AFAIK
