    I don’t know, if it was faked, you would also had to find a way to convince thousands of people to keep it all a secret. That would take a ton of coordination and planning.

      It’s also the fact that you have to simulate all the details, basically to fake the moon landing they would have needed to effectively do a moon landing anyways, except you don’t even get the benefit of physics doing the job for you.

      Like there’s a reason a decent amount of people are still using practical FX in movies, it automatically makes things realistic.
