Look, clearly the moon landings were faked. Think about it. If we had REALLY landed on the moon, would the country have then gutted the space program and slowed exploration to a crawl?
Errr.
No, that couldn't have happened. Much better to assume it was faked.
That's no moon...

As Photoshop and other image manipulation techniques get better--not to mention 3D rendering--those "fake" Apollo photos look better and better! Remember how crude the ones they made in 1969 were?
I regret to announce that, since the moon shows us always its same side, there can be no such thing as Earthrise!! The Earth doesn't move on the Moon's sky. Just think about it.
It's silly, but everywhere in books you find pictures of the Earth in Moon's horizon and a label about the marvellous Earthrise.
A way to get such a thing is to walk on the Moon. If you walk far enough you may see the Earth moving.
But notice that days exist on the Moon. Meaning, the same thing doesn't happen with the Sun.
Why am I typing so many things in capitals!? Feels like german.

It's a space station!
