I don't know what to believe. Elon sort of has a point. The moon footage (specifically the lander footage as Apollo descended to the surface) seems a little difficult to fake in 1969.

On the other hand, the god damn Japanese couldn't successfully land their luner module or transmit live video of the landing when they tried last month.

Elon sort of has a point.

I've read a lot of conspiracy theories about the moon landing and not once has CGI (computer generated imagery) ever been mentioned. I don't know what point you think he has, but he's making a strawman argument, which is a sign that he's wrong.

That is a good point. You're correct in that no one talks about CGI in the context of the moon landing. Elon is trolling and I read into his point as to meaning we didn't have the technology to fake a moon landing in 1969.

Regardless of whether Kubrick was involved or not, it would have been hard to fake 50+ years ago.

No one said faking a moon landing would be easy.

Correct, it took them almost a decade.

White men went to the Moon. No amount of paid shilling will ever change that.

I have watched American Moon. I also watched "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Moon" and read "Moon Man: The True Story of a Filmmaker on the CIA Hit List" You won't win $50 bucks but it did raise some interesting questions.

I spent some time watching this stabilized footage and you see lunar dust thrown in the air by the rover. So the question is this how you expect dust to act in a vacuum w/ 1/6 of earths gravity? I'm not sure TBH.

Nuking the Moon is another thing. Russians sent a dog there first.

As far as Musk he's paid to shill.

But OMG 50 years later are only just sending Billionaires into upper orbit? Didn't that get cancelled? Because of climate change.

Give up.

They sent a dog to orbit, not to the moon. She didn't make it back alive. :(

Exactly. Why did all manned flight later end in disaster. Every single time. Until the ISS.

Thanks. It's different nuking the moon, than coming back from the moon.

This by all probability is, tell me these odds. No return manned. Only drones.
