A few boosters and crash it on the moon.

The movie Moon Zero Two. It’s an MST3K.

Having a functional moon base would help.

I did not know the moon was a square.

Is this a deep fake like all the other NASA pictures and videos?

Okay...not ALL NASA photos are deep fakes.

Some are actual photos.

Many are enhanced photos (colors adjusted to increase interest or to continue a narrative)

Many are edited. Things that are difficult or inconvenient to explain are often removed.

Many moons ago my uncle (who was former Air Force intelligence and finished his career working security for Los Alamos and Sandia Labs) sent me raw NASA photos from the shuttle missions. Mostly kind of boring, but I did notice, years later, that there are “artifacts” in the backgrounds. I’m sure they are just space garbage floating around.

Hmmm...
This photo clearly indicates that it is a barren water world and would not support human life-forms...

The camera showed “Earth” and “Moon” without any editing.

Lol.

This is about 290 million miles away.
Is there any intelligent life on that planet?

The moon is supposed to be one quarter the radius of the Earth:

The dot was too small so NASA had to “fix” it.
