    I believe the moon landing did happen, but our moon is a strange one. It's the the only one I think that is spherical as some are like potato shape. Of all the moons in the solar system, it's the only one that perfectly eclipses the sun. It's craters, regardless of differences of the width, have almost the same depth. Plus when the astronauts accidentally dropped part of the rocket at the moon, it rang like a bell for hours.

    its suggested geologic history is also quite... remarkable.

    For those still in doubt, I recommend Dave McKeegan's channel. There are many other debunkers of Flat-Earthers (Flerfs) and Moon landing deniers out there, but Dave's is the easiest to digest because his approach is of being non-combative and tactful rebuke. I follow other debunkers like MCToon, Jeranism (former Flat-Earther), and a smattering of others.

    Dave, MCToon, Jeran (of Jeranism), et al., were part of a group of Globe-Earthers and Flat-Earthers that visited Antarctica almost a year ago to see if there's a 24-hour sun in December. The expedition was called The Final Experiment or TFE and was lead by a pastor named Will Duffy. Prior to this, the general consensus among Flerfs is that, there can't be a 24-hour sun in the south on a flat earth model. Well, they were right.... simply because we live on a globe. As a result of the many experiments done by TFE , not the least of which was capturing the 24-hour sun using Insta-360s and several other cameras, there has been a significant exodus from Flerfdom, along with a lot of in-fighting and the resulting implosion among the remaining Flerfs as they battle for whatever remaining clout they have.

    In 1969 it looks real in our RCA color TV
    The directors cut 50 years later looks more real in our sony bravia.
    Both films are a perfect remake of the 1902 Trip to the Moon.
    They are in the same class as Voltes-V, Daimos, Mazinger Z.

    The 'Apollo 11' documentary that came out in 2019 was breathtaking. I have since rewatched it 3 more times.

    The buildup during the significant segments of the trip, together with the music score (mostly produced using analog synths like Moog), adds to the suspense and period-correctness.... Launch sequence, TLE burn, LOI burn, LM separation, powered descent, ascent, docking, TEI burn, reentry and splashdown.

    And only in the documentary did I realize the significance of the Callsigns....

    Lunar Module (LM) still attached to the Command Module/Service Module (CM/SM) = Apollo 11
    LM after separation = Eagle
    CM/SM after separation = Columbia
    After rendezvous and docking of LM with CM/SM = Apollo 11

    These all came from the original 65mm large-format film stock, which was stored in the National Archives. It slipped under the radar for half a century because they were originally uncatalogued or even mislabeled. These films were shot only for NASA internal documentation and its purpose were mostly for engineering. Nobody could've guessed that one day it will be used as a theatrical release. For the documentary, the producers captured/digitized the original footage into 8K and 16K resolution to preserve as much detail.... and for projection to IMAX.
