    Looks like a big model rocket to me, not an attempt at faking a moon landing.

    Unless you think that the russians had 2000 model year mazda pickups in the 1970's, cause that's whats in the background.

    You must be kidding, because no one is that dumb.

    A few flaws with that theory:

    1) the 1999 Mazda pickup truck in the background
    2) the mountain in the background is located in Utah
