Question: Was the moon-landing fake?

I understand that there is a LOT of fake news out there, and it is hard to believe a lot of things that make it on the news today but this is one thing I am pretty sure is NOT fake. I do believe man landed on the moon. The cold war era which resulted in the space race between US and Russia which culminated with man landing on the moon, while it caused a lot of tension and harm in the world in a lot of ways, it also helped revolutionize science. Material that were used to design these space crafts to enable them to go to the moon, the communication satellites and equipment that was designed and put in place to be able to communicate with the astronauts in space, the experiments conducted in space on the effects of gravity on the human (and animal) body and behaviour, all of these resulted in a lot of important discoveries – cell phone, computers, internet, cable tv, airline travel – that we take for granted today. So please respect the achievements of the astronauts who were willing to sacrifice their lives and their families to be the pioneers who allow us to lead the exciting, cutting edge lives we lead today!
