The moon landing being a hoax is a classic conspiracy that only certain tin foil hat wearers tend to believe. These people believe there is something fishy about the Apollo 11 landing on July 20, 1969. There are details of the landing that don’t seem to add up. The first issue taken with the moon landing video is the flag that was planted was waving, which should not be possible in a giant vacuum like space. The lighting of the video is also a point of contention, with the lighting being inconsistent, suggesting it was filmed in a studio. The most prominent point I have heard is the fact that there were no stars, which further supports the theory that it was filmed and staged. Conspiracists sometimes point to anomalies in the footage, claiming visible inconsistencies, like the lack of a visible blast crater beneath the spacecraft or apparent motion discrepancies in the astronauts’ movements. The reason it is easy to believe something like this is because many rightfully believe the government will do anything to put themselves at an advantage. Some argue that the United States faked the moon landing to win the Space Race against the Soviet Union to boast technological superiority during the Cold War.
