... that there's junk left on the moon from the space missions, it's relatively easy to put inanimate objects up there because you don't have to worry about getting them back.
You could bounce a laser off the reflectors left up there if you were so inclined, and it's been done... Hypothetically, if you were going to fake a landing, you'd probably shoot up a little buggy, a flag and whatnot as well, just for that added authenticity.. how looking at the moon and seeing what has been left behind is going to prove man ever walked on it though is beyond me.
