Skeptics would argue the Moon landing was faked by Stanley Kubrick, commissioned by NASA, on the elaborate set of the lunar landscape, of his movie, Space Odyssey 2001, and they will point to many inconsistencies such as no background stars in the photos of the astronauts on the moon surface, the fact that the American flag is waving in the photos (no air on the Moon, hel-loo!) and that actually being able to send a manned rocket ship to the moon and land a man on its surface in a precalculated manner is obviously way beyond the technical capabilities of the 1960s, especially the hugely complicated and laborious orbital mechanics, transfer orbits included, and lack of super computers, which were best realized in the movie, The Martian with Matt Damon. Even on his deathbed Kubrick is rumored to have whispered, I faked the landing. I needed the money to pay for Space Odyssey.
