I know.
But NASA is such a liberal organization, NASA is such a UN-loving, Climate Change/Paris Accord loving, Islam-loving organization... founded with actual Hitler-era Nazis... that I’m surprised the conservatives on FR buy anything that NASA tells us!

Back in the early 1980's I believed in global warming, and I believed our government wasn't capable of keeping huge secrets from the public. Looking at the stacks of B.S. stories the media and our own government have spoon fed us and I can't say we definitely went to the moon anymore.
Trust is earned and trust can be lost. You can start with the Kennedy assassination, Chappaquiddick and now we have global warming and the deep state. Good lies like the SR-71 and F-117, and bad lies like Benghazi and the Iran deal. Truth is cheaper than it might once have been.
There is no doubt that good things came from the Apollo program, Texas Instruments for example. I do believe the rockets were launched and command modules were recovered. But I think they faked some of this stuff, and that puts it on a slippery slope.
Perfect photography from guys wearing welding gloves and operating manual cameras with no viewfinders? As Sontagged points out the electrical power consumption forces a leap of faith not unlike how Comey and Brennan assure us Trump cheated with the Russians to beat Hillary.
