This is one of my fave images of all time
Opinions of the guy aside, I recall it was Neil DeGrasse Tyson who made the argument that it simply is cheaper and easier to go to the moon than to fake it and maintain the coverup.
Like, we can’t keep secrets for shit, but that’s the one that stays kept?
But it didn’t stay kept. We’re talking about it now and it’s synonymous with famous conspiracy theories.
I can only assume you meant faking the moon landing was, like this shit, rad as hell!
Most people I’ve brought the moon landing up to think the moon landing was fake. I usually point out a few examples to explain away the their arguments. Also I add that thinking it was fake is a huge slap in the face to all the skilled people who made it happen.
I feel like I’m going crazy. But everything I’ve looked up are credible sources, unlike some stupid YouTuber pointing to the the flag and saying “there’s no wind on the moon, how do you explain that sheep!”
They put a fucking pole through the top of the flag to keep it straight, because they also realize there was no fucking wind. A kindergarten could work out how to do that.
The real cover-up about the flag is so much more fun. The astronauts were sworn to secrecy for decades.
Then decades later, some scientists were taking high resolution photos of the moon that weren’t quite good enough to see the flags themselves but did show the shadows of them. But they couldn’t see a shadow for the Apollo 11 flag, and then NASA had to come clean.
When they took off from the Moon, Buzz Aldrin saw the thrust of the spacecraft blow the flag over. When he told NASA about it in the debriefing they told him “you can never tell anyone this.”
Counter point - Actually good CGI in 1993:
The entire moon is just CGI. Prove me wrong, go there and live stream from the moon to show you can really stand on it. I bet you won’t.
Lol, people still believe in the moon.
That’s just a psyop, NASA and the CIA were hiding some of the world’s leading stable diffusion models for the time in a secret underground Data center somewhere in the Nevada desert.
So what you’re saying is they not only faked the moon landing, they also kept these amazing computer graphics from us gamers all this time?
Truly monstrous.
I came for transforming monke robots, but what I got was the most kino character death out of all children’s cartoons.
