@PCSetaram Wow, really? How many people were in on it? The Russians watching the mission with their radios and telescopes? The space agencies from other countries that published pictures of the Apollo landing sites? The amateur radio operators that eavesdropped on Apollo? All in on it?

NASA says some of the Apollo landing sites will be visible at the very beginning of the Artemis II lunar flyby on Monday. They’ll say exactly what ones in the daily briefing tomorrow. That means moon landing deniers are going to have real bad day on Monday.

@Markmcc21 @NASA I believe the English word you’re looking for is “you’re”, as in: “… the English language you’re now speaking …” Just trying to help.

@RickK101 @NASA Yes Rick Ross “you’s” despite not being grammatically correct is still an acceptable word just like “youse” which is most popular in England you know the country of origin of the English language your now speaking and trying to lecture me on.

These four astronauts are currently on a mission to fly around the Moon—and soon they'll break the record for how far humans have traveled from Earth! Meet our Artemis II crew 👇

@Markmcc21 @NASA I’ve no idea what your point is. Every Apollo from 8 onward went around the Moon. I think you’re operating with some very basic misunderstanding, but I don’t yet understand it. Please make your point in other words and I’ll try to help.

For all you highly moronic moon conspiracy theorists... The moon landings happened. Here are four bulletproof reasons why the hoax theory collapses under its own weight. 1. We brought back 842 pounds of moon rocks and geologists worldwide have been slicing them open for 55 years Apollo 11–17 crews hauled back samples that scream "lunar origin" in every isotope, crystal structure, and chemical signature. These rocks have zero water content (Earth rocks almost always have some), solar wind particles embedded from billions of years of unfiltered space exposure, and microscopic glass beads formed by ancient meteorite impacts— stuff impossible to replicate with 1960s tech. Independent labs in the Soviet Union, Europe, Japan, and China analyzed them and confirmed: same age (3.7–4.5 billion years), same exotic minerals like armalcolite, same lack of oxidation. If NASA faked it, they'd have needed a secret lunar rock factory decades ahead of its time. Conspiracy theorists never explain how we pulled that off while simultaneously "faking" the tech to get there. These samples are still studied today in museums and universities— you can touch (protected) pieces yourself. 2. Laser reflectors are still on the Moon, and anyone with the right equipment can ping them right now Apollo 11, 14, and 15 crews placed corner-cube retroreflectors on the lunar surface. These are passive mirrors (no batteries, no moving parts) that bounce laser beams straight back to Earth. Observatories like McDonald in Texas, Apache Point in New Mexico, and facilities in France, Italy, and Australia have been firing lasers at them daily since 1969 and measuring the round-trip time to millimeter precision. The data proves the distance to the Moon (about 384,400 km) and how it's slowly receding (3.8 cm/year). China’s Chang’e missions and India’s Chandrayaan have imaged the exact landing sites, including the hardware and tracks. If it was faked, the hoaxers would have needed to secretly land mirrors on the Moon— or convince every laser-ranging scientist on Earth to lie for half a century. Spoiler: they didn’t. 3. Modern orbiters from multiple countries have photographed the landing sites in high resolution—footprints and all NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) has snapped razor-sharp images of every Apollo site since 2009. You can see the descent stages, rover tracks, astronaut footprints, and even the exact paths they walked. Japan’s SELENE, India’s Chandrayaan-2, and China’s Chang’e-2 and Chang’e-3 orbiters independently confirmed the same shadows, hardware, and disturbance patterns. These aren’t blurry NASA photos from 1969, they’re crisp, multi-spectral images taken decades later by rival space agencies. The geometry matches perfectly: the flag is still there (Apollo 11’s fell over during liftoff), the rover is parked where they left it, and the blast craters under the landers are exactly as predicted. A studio set on Earth couldn’t survive that level of global scrutiny from space. 4. The conspiracy would have been bigger, dumber, and leakier than the actual mission Over 400,000 people worked on Apollo. That’s engineers, technicians, contractors, secretaries, and janitors across dozens of companies and universities. Not one deathbed confession, not one leaked memo, not one whistleblower with hard proof in 55+ years? That’s statistically insane. The Soviets were tracking every second of the missions in real time with their own radar and radio telescopes— they hated America’s guts and would have screamed "fake" at the first glitch if they could. Instead, they congratulated the U.S. and kept quiet. Faking it would have required inventing better special effects, vacuum chambers, and propulsion tech than what actually existed while hiding it from the very people who built the real rockets. Occam’s razor doesn’t just cut here; it eviscerates the hoax. The footage, the rocks, the reflectors, the photos, the tracking data— they all line up perfectly because the landings were real. The moon is still up there, waiting for the next crew. The evidence isn’t "believable", it’s undeniable. If you’re still on the fence, go look at an LRO image of Tranquility Base or bounce a laser off those reflectors yourself. Remember: conspiracy theory is the sophistication of the ignorant.

@NASA Did yous forget the last hoax? Apollo 11 apparently circled the moon before landing meaning they’ve went just as far to land 😂 Remember a few days ago your astronaut said they’ll be the first humans on the moon, must have stepped into marvel’s multiverse and forgot buzz 🐝

@jwoodz56 @pbeisel Curious, Jay If the Lunar Landers were fake, why make them look so cheesy? If Kubrick was directing the hoax images, why not make landers that would convince people with “Star Wars” science educations like you?

@GerrardJud46398 @pbeisel I have a theory about how you stole money from your parents and killed your cousin. If I obsessively talked about it on social media and put money into an influencing and amplification campaign, I could get a lot of people to believe it. How much grace will you grant my theory?

@pbeisel They have no sense of reality. You could drag them to the moon, land at any of the six Apollo landing sites, show them with their own eyes, and they’d still call it a hoax.

@LysergicAim @72daystar @Dysthyman_1948 @GodlyAction Your desire to feel proud of yourself for unearned reasons blinds you. You saying you're doing God's work is like me saying the fairies love me and will give me eternal life. Meaningless. Your God is to us what the Angel Moroni or the gods of the Hindus or Maori are to you.

@novusolus @Cat_Brah @SolBrah Not all. Just the impossible ones, like Apollo Hoax, Sandy Hook, Flat Earth, etc. And not all conspiracy believers are narcissists. Some are just sheltered, or ignorant, or have only ever viewed the world through a screen. It's narcissists that call other people sheep.

@RickK101 @Cat_Brah @SolBrah Reducing epistemological questions to psychology just leaves the question of fact on the table. And it's equally stupid to declare a priori that all conspiracy theories are the product of narcissistic delusions.

@Cat_Brah @SolBrah If the Apollo program never landed men on the Moon NASA is conspiring with foreign space agencies and countless employees past and present to deliberately falsify aerial photography or conceal the records of the hoax. To this day there has not been a single whistleblower.

Then show us what you all are seeing. Record it. Zoom in to Earth with a video camera. Show the sun setting behind the Earth like you all claim you saw. Zoom in on Africa and the Northern lights. They have nothing to show you except few bad CGI photos. No video. Actornauts.

@mumusicpromoti1 @Black_Pilled My question: How many people must have been in on the hoax? Astronomers and radio operators - amateur and pro - who watched and eavesdropped on Apollo, scientists who studied Moon rocks - all in on it? 1000s of people, and not one signed a big book deal to reveal the hoax?

@Black_Pilled Kaysing-1976 seed text, Sibrel-2001 hoax vehicle, with Kubrick lore layered on top. The real test is falsifiability: site photos, lunar samples, independent tracking, and laser retroreflectors are hard to fake all at once: Apollo sites, retroreflector evidence from LRO/NASA.

@Filmsanddogs They are fact immune. Flat Earthers, Apollo Deniers, Sandy Hook Hoaxers… they don’t care about being factually right. They are un-special people who want attention and to feel special. On average, the dominant personality trait of grand conspiracy promoters is narcissism.

Moon-landing denier Bart Sibrel has staked his whole career on Apollo being a hoax. What happens when Artemis films the landing sites? Will he just call that fake too? I can’t wait to see the mental gymnastics 😂
