Seems weird that the government would pay out such big bucks to have a bunch of engineers work on a fake rocket, have a bunch of dudes sit in a fake control room, and make it all convincing enough that they believed they were all actually sending a guy to the moon. Must have been a lot of effort to make all those computers print out fake data that was enough to convince the scientists “yup we landed that dude”.
Not any more effort than was required for the coverup of biological war crimes on Korean peninsula, the OPCW lie about Bashar Al-Assad using chemical weapons on his own population, or the OPCW lie that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction.
Faking the moon landing seems like a much easier lie to maintain than the other lies of the US empire.
