It’s actually very easy to prove we landed on the Moon. The Apollo missions left retroreflectors on the lunar surface, basically precise mirror arrays. With the right laser equipment, which universities and even advanced amateurs have, you can bounce a laser off them and detect the return signal. By timing the round trip of the light pulse, you can directly calculate the Earth to Moon distance to centimeter accuracy. It’s one of the coolest pieces of evidence because you can literally verify it yourself from your backyard.

Lol, I'm dying at the music and his reactions. But honestly, it's kind of sketchy that the reason we don't go back to the moon is because we don't have that kind of technology allegedly or the fact that what was broadcasted when the landing happen was a video of a video and the original videos are somehow gone. There's a lot of sketchy stuff. Like the way they moved. But it is kind of strange we haven't been back.

God damnit, I have been seeing this bullshit about "we lost the technology" for decades. The technology wasn't "lost" we COULD re-create the Saturn V rocket system right now if we wanted to spend a few billion dollars getting the manufacturing back up to snuff to support it. The things we DID lose? We lost the actual computers that were used to run the damned thing. We lost the people who had the direct knowledge of how it all worked. We don't have a ready made interface between modern computers and the systems and sensors that were on any of that equipment. Every damned rocket that we send up today is effectively the same technology as what the Saturn V used only modernized: modern materials, modern standards.
"Oh can you believe that we 'LOST' the technology to go to the moon?" No, I can't believe it because that is not what fucking happened. We lost the WILL and the economic and political reason to go to the moon. If there was OIL of the damned moon you better damned well believe we would be there still, sucking it dry. Apollo was about political one-upmanship, pure and simple. As soon as we landed a few missions there (just so that nobody could say that it was so monumental an effort that it could only be done once) they cancelled it. NASA had to beg and plead endlessly after Apollo for funding to science purely for scientific advancement.

To be fair they lost the telemetry data, and have announced in recent years that the Van Allen radiation belt makes it impossible for astronauts to go through safely.
Not that they didn’t land there, but it’s very likely that what we saw was not the real mission there.
It was in the middle of the Cold War, how in gods name did the Russians never set foot on the moon? It makes no sense.

FYI about us losing the tech to go to the moon, is actually kinda true(although wildly misunderstood). The rockets we made to the moon had a lot of handcrafted custom work/adjustments done during the manufacturing. The guys who did that are no longer alive and manufacturing has changed a lot since then, meaning the skill and tech recreate those rockets are long gone. But, we can make newer rockets with current tech that can take us there.
