Welcome to /c/[email protected] , where fake history is made. Find a historically significant photo, come up with a fake history title, post it, laugh.

The name is a reference to the fact that the pictures should be worth marveling at. This is NOT a place for hardcore pornography. Tasteful nudity is fine as long as it fits within the context of the post (please mark it as NSFW).

The moon landing was staged. On the moon.

That's what happens when you hire Stanley Kubrick to stage your moon landing video. The guy's such a perfectionist, he insisted on shooting on location.

Stanley Kubrick started the Apollo program, designed and built rockets and trained astronauts just so he could fly to the moon to stage a fake moon landing video on the moon. That's dedication.

Making it a Hollywood production is probably also the reason it was so crazy expensive.

Actuallllly, we live on the moon. All the earth shots are staged

This picture portrait the moon over the Eiger, the Mönch and the Jungfrau. The fotograf itself took it in Bern. In the left corner, you can see the roof of the Berner historisches museum (Bern's historical Museum).

Ah yes, the moon was in the background of the moon stage.
