I just need people to know that they didn't fake the moon landing, that really happened. They faked the moon. It didn't exist prior to the 1960s when it was created by the US government in order to move the goalposts in the space race.

The insider knowledge that there would soon be a moon to land on gave NASA the head start they needed on the Apollo program to finally beat the Soviets, who were thoroughly blindsided by the sudden appearance of the moon.

This is bullshit. What we see as the moon is actually the earth, after the reptillians ruined it. What we live on is actually a domed space station orbiting the moon-earth.

We didnt go to the moon, we went back to the moon.
