Conspiracy theorists do not change their minds based on anything, unfortunately. Its the nature of believing in them in the first place.

No one is this gullible or stupid. This has to be a massive troll job. Has to be.

The hollow moon theory is actually really interesting. Not that I believe it or anything like that, but it makes compelling sci-fi.

I can't wait for Artemis 1 launch, i believe they are going to try again in November, i sure hope they finally worked out the bugs and are ready this time. This is exactly why you "fly mannequins" to the moon 1st. There's a million components in a rocket like this, so many systems and mechanisms that can fail.

imo Saying it was fake is a slap in the face to the families of the brave men that were burned alive during that capsule test from the oxygen leak that ignited.

It would make a great sci-fi B-Movie.

They could call it something like, I dunno, maybe Moonfall? Ya, that might work.

Calgary is quantum entangled with Airdrie?

It's the only reasonable explanation.

It's not the SLS, but SpaceX is launching a Falcon Heavy mission in under half an hour.
