Whether we land on the moon or not, it's one of those things where if we did, you're still going to have a bunch of people convinced that we didn't. Just because that's their personality.

I disagree....

I agree that there will be people that will deny a particular fact for no reason even if the evidences are 100% clear... But comparing that with the moon landing isn't fair...

Here we aren't saying that it was fake, we are just saying how it is so hard to believe on moon landing. The reasoning isn't just to look cool or something, it justs doesn't convince us when we think about the primitive technologies which were used in the 60s, it makes it hard to swallow the precise accomplishment of the moon landing without much fuss or international chaos till the completion xD



There's really nothing primitive about the 1960s rockets used in the Apollo program.
These were designs largely of Werner Von Braun, and the outgrowth of his designs used by the Germans during the second world war.

The Apollo flight computer was quite capable of handling the major segments of the flight to and from the moon, including landing on the moon, take off and re entry once near Earth.

One rather interesting thing was that all navigational instructions and course corrections/deviations was via voice channel, exactly as air traffic control operated, and still operates today.
