IMO this conspiracy is best tackled by the Kubrick angle. Sure, the van allen radiation belt and all that. But Kubrick was a master of visual "tricks" of the camera. He made the space station in 2001 "spin" before cgi even existed. Lots of interesting technical information to dive into.
The thing is with the story though, the parts that were changed from King's novel. The kid playing on a floor that mimicks kennedy space center, wearing an apollo 11 sweater, "don't go into room 237" and all that.
