Can you answer the question: What prevented the Apollo landing and return trip? What was the “failure point” that made faking the mission necessary? What was the technical hurdle that could not be surmounted? (One question, served up multiple ways.)
The mission was never possible.
More importantly, it still is not possible!
All you need to look at is all the technical reasons NASA can’t do it today, and you will have your answer.
It is a long list.
