I revisit this video often. It's very well made, and probably the best documentary on youtube I've ever seen - iranoutofusernameideas7438
They are hiding this video. If you type "American Moon" in the search bar you will not find it in the results. I even tried "American Moon English Version" and it wasn't in the results. The only way I was able to find it was by going through my history of watched videos. - gnot_paul
Does it matter whether American Empire went to the moon?
I think that’s a very personal question.
To many, the question itself is ridiculous.
Others, while open to the question, don’t care about the answer: “What can I do about it anyway?”
To others the answer matters.
If you are in the first two categories, I suggest you pass on this stack.
If you are in the third category, and the answer matters, as it does for me, then this is for you.
To start with, none of us were there, neither in the cockpit nor “on the moon” with the astronauts, so if you are looking for certainty on the answer, you should stop looking.
The best you can hope for is a probabilistic conclusion based on the totality of the evidence.
You will have to decide for yourself how many improbabilities make a certainty.
I’ll tell you why the answer matters to me.
It’s the same reason it matters whether the Official Story™ of the JFK assassination is true or not.
The same reason the Official Stories™ of Polio, AIDS, 911 and Covid matter to me.
I want to know what I am dealing with. I want to know the spirit of the enterprise that is shaping my world, and what they are capable of.
I want to know who is abusing me.
If Empire didn’t go to the moon, that means that Empire lies (for readers of this Substack that is not news). But more specifically it means that NASA lies.
It means that they have lied then and every day since the first moon landing mission, of which there have been six1.
This same organization is responsible for much of the “primary” data that inform the IPCC models, which have given rise to the Empire Doctrine of Climate Change.
So, at least for me, whether NASA lies or not is important.
And if they lie, then exposing them as liars is important to me, because their lies are the wool used to weave the suffocating blanket of Climate Change pessimism that has been placed on young generations of the last 30 years. An unforgivable theft of global optimism.
Did the British Empire lie this much? I genuinely don’t know.
Did the Roman Empire lie this much?
Is it the choice to be an Invisible Empire that necessitates these regular global reality distortions?
If you are a Visible Empire, then I guess you simply rule through force as your primary means of control. But if you choose invisibility, you forgo physical force and instead need to control minds.
Untruth is this Empire’s currency. Everything it takes an interest in; it warps and inverts.
Anyway, we are here to talk about the moon landing.
The following documentary is, I believe, the best production on the subject.
It is very hard to find on YouTube, not cancelled but heavily shadow banned.
So, if Empire doesn’t want you to see it, that generally means I want to write about it.
It is a 3.5-hour-long documentary, created by the Italian filmmaker Massimo Mazzucco, and is frankly a magnificent piece of investigative documentary work.
Mazzucco also produced the magnificent documentary Cancer: The Forbidden Cures which I have previously written about.
If you want to find your peace with the moon landing question, I think this is the best resource available.

Here is a brief summary of the topics covered in the documentary, but be aware that it's merely a basic overview and not a substitute for the documentary itself. You need to watch the actual footage and see the photos to understand what they did and how they did it.
But since you are here, I wanted to provide you with some insightful information about the documentary. However, I hope this doesn’t dampen your motivation to set aside time to watch it, maybe over a couple of evenings.
Comprehensive Summary:
I. Introduction
This film explores the possibility that the moon landings of the Apollo space program in the 1960s and 1970s were faked. It argues that due to technical difficulties, NASA realized in 1967 that it would not be possible to land astronauts on the moon by the end of 1969 as President Kennedy had proclaimed. At that point, NASA decided to use sophisticated simulation systems they already had in place to fake the lunar landings in a studio, while broadcasting them to the public as if they were real.
The film cites a number of reasons and pieces of evidence that suggest the impossibility of authentic lunar landings with 1960s technology. It also attempts to debunk or provide alternative explanations for the evidence typically used to support the official account of the Apollo missions.
Most people working on "Apollo" didn't need to know it was fake. Most ppl working on the project only dealt with a tiny fraction of the work, compartmentalized work. Very few people 5-10 if I remember correctly, knew and had access to the overall project and details. - roberthak3695
II. Context and Background on the Apollo Program
In 1961, President Kennedy announced the goal of landing a man on the moon before 1970. This launched NASA's Apollo program, led by Administrator James Webb. Due to underfunding and technical difficulties, by 1967 NASA was severely behind schedule and increasingly doubtful of its ability to fulfill Kennedy's goal of a manned lunar landing.
That same year, the Apollo 1 fire tragedy put the program on indefinite hold. A government investigation uncovered ongoing problems with the lunar module, rockets, and life support systems. Soon after, James Webb and other top NASA officials unexpectedly resigned.
Alternative theory: With the deadline approaching, top decision-makers at NASA chose to fake the remaining Apollo missions rather than publicly fail to achieve Kennedy's proclaimed goal. This would have only required the cooperation of a small inner circle at NASA. The vast majority working on Apollo could have remained unaware of the deception.
I was 15 and watched with my dad and he slid down from his armchair onto the floor laughing. I really wish he could have seen this, it's the best I've seen on the subject. We need to remember that the whole world was duped in '69 - SapaHollidaySaparonia
III. Lack of Realism in Presentation of Lunar Landings
The quality of construction of the lunar module (LEM) appears crude and sloppy, with metal sheets randomly fastened together with tape in a way that seems unsuitable for space flight.
There is no crater beneath the LEM indicating rocket blast disturbance of the lunar surface during landing. NASA photos show obvious surface disturbance from rocket landings on Mars.
There is a lack of flame eruption during LEM ascents from the moon. The hypergolic fuel used should produce visible exhaust. In rocket tests on earth and in the vacuum of space, hypergolic fuel shows obvious flame. Yet the LEM lift-offs show no visible plume or engine flare.
During LEM flight there is an absence of engine noise inside the cabin. The engine is contained within the pressurized cabin, so its powerful roar should be clearly audible.
IV. Implausibilities Related to Lunar Environment
A. Deadly Van Allen Radiation Belts
The biggest obstacle to manned flight to the moon is traversing the intensely radioactive Van Allen Belts orbiting the Earth. No living things were sent through the belts prior to Apollo. Yet the spacecraft walls were quite thin, with nowhere near sufficient shielding to protect astronauts. All Apollo astronauts reportedly traveled through these deadly belts on the way to and from the moon with no reported issues.
B. Extreme Temperatures
Temperatures on the moon range from over 200°F on the lit surface to -200°F in shadows. The delicate photo cameras used on the outside of Apollo spacecraft should not have been able to withstand such extremes. Especially problematic are extended periods (up to 1 hour) in the extreme cold of the LEM's shadow reported during EVAs. Mechanical binding and film breakage due to severe contraction should result under those conditions. Yet the cameras apparently worked perfectly.
C. Inconsistent Behavior of Lunar Dust
With no atmosphere and moisture on the airless moon, dust particles should not stick to surfaces. Due to static charge differentials, particles would be repelled and scatter. Yet NASA photos show lunar dust stubbornly adhering to astronauts' spacesuits, cameras, rover lenses, etc. Footprint impressions are unusually well-defined, apparently having been wetted to retain shape.
The "Google" challenge could have put all of this to rest. And nasa said please do not disturb. That is all I needed to hear. - docleadpill5556
V. Implausibilities Specific to Photography
A. Lack of Star Images in Pictures and Astronaut Recollections
No stars appear in the background of lunar surface photos. While quite overexposed from sunlight, the night sky should appear filled with stars, especially noticeable when the sun is hidden behind the moon. Strangely, none of the Apollo 11 astronauts report seeing any stars from the moon's surface itself. Later Apollo astronauts relate staring for hours at star fields. The Apollo 11 crew oddly can't recall seeing any stars.
B. Inconsistencies with Lighting and Shadows
Many photos contain lighting oddities like spot illumination hot spots, inconsistent shadow angles suggesting nearby lighting rigs rather than the sun, backlighting effects which should only be possible using reflectors to bounce light forward onto darkened areas. The 44 deg. hot spot glare on lunar dust boot heels suggests a secondary light source.
VI. Peculiar Absence of Harmful Space Radiation Effects
Cosmic rays should have permeated the photo film magazines stored outside lunar module. Excellent radiation shielding does not exist even today. Long exposure to such harsh radiation always damages film emulsions, causing image fading, loss of sharpness/contrast, and a process called solarization with darkened spot damage. Yet there is no detectable evidence of any radiation print-through damage or image artifacts on the lunar photographs and negatives that spent many hours unprotected on the airless, atmosphere-less moon. They appear as pristine as carefully preserved archive film stored on earth. Their perfection seems impossible given the environment.
VII. Waving Flag and Visible Atmosphere Phenomena
With complete absence of wind or air, motion in waving U.S. flags seen standing on the lunar surface is enigmatic. Apollo 11 film shows the flag flapping as astronauts walk past with no direct contact made. One long sequence displays a flag extending and swinging for extended periods with both astronauts inside the LEM and out of camera view. Only some form of atmosphere could initiate such movement. Likewise, drifting dust clouds suspended above lunar rover wheel tracks suggest air molecules, as dust particles in a vacuum would follow precise arched trajectories to the surface.
VIII. Astronaut Statements and Behavior After Returning from Apollo 11 Mission
A marked change seems evident in the attitudes of the Apollo 11 crew after returning to Earth. In their first news conference, Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins appear surprisingly somber and grim rather than exuberant. Armstrong especially seems humorless, speaking haltingly while staring down with little eye contact. Asked the meaning of Apollo 11, their profound achievement for mankind, the trio react uncomfortably, providing answers strangely devoid of emotion, eloquence, or inspiration. Their behavior suggests perhaps private doubts concerning the authenticity of their recent mission.
In subsequent years, all three men resigned from NASA service long before the Apollo program ended. Neil Armstrong became an eccentric recluse, rarely making public appearances and giving no interviews for decades before his death. Buzz Aldrin suffered severe depression and alcoholism soon after Apollo 11, rendering him unrecognizable in photos. In one interview he warns young people aspiring to space travel that the field was risky and goals often remained unmet, while in another he claims the moon destroyed his life. Confronted years later to swear on the Bible that he had walked on the moon, he angrily refused. Michael Collins likewise avoided the same request, fleeing in embarrassed haste.
Given the magnitude of human achievement that Apollo 11 represented if actual, the disenchantment and dissolution of its crew post mission raises lingering questions. Their strangely disparate behavior afterward may signify private disillusionment regarding the authenticity of their unprecedented moon venture conducted a half century ago. Perhaps heroic pretense degenerated for them into disheartened regret. One wonders.
Here are further bullet points from American Moon.
The Apollo missions required developing new technology to protect astronauts from space radiation while crossing the Van Allen belts around Earth. But this problem mysteriously disappeared as the missions began.
In 1968, Apollo 8 orbited the moon, becoming the first manned mission to pass through the Van Allen belts. Yet radiation was never discussed.
In total, there were 6 successful manned Apollo missions that landed on the moon between 1969-1972. After Apollo 17, the last mission, the Apollo program was ended.
The immense propaganda campaign in the media during the 1960s made withdrawing from the "race to the moon" impossible - it had captured the public's imagination.
Faking the landings may have been deemed preferable to admitting failure on such a highly publicized goal. Since NASA had the capability to fully simulate moon landings, producing fake footage to broadcast would fool the public.
"Despite modern computing capabilities, no full reenactment of a journey to the moon has ever been attempted. This raises doubt such a trip was ever taken."
"Original tapes of telemetry data from the Apollo 11 moon walk recording key metrics like heart rate and location data have gone missing. Their disappearance means moderns experts cannot authenticate if the metrics are consistent with a real moon walk."
All original Apollo lunar module (LEM) blueprints have disappeared. Their absence is suspicious and unexplained.
Original tapes of the Apollo 11 moonwalk containing key data like astronaut heartbeats and locations have gone missing too.
In several audio examples, the responses are nearly instant – suggesting communications actually took place with the astronauts much closer to Earth.
Despite modern computing power, no crewed mission has ever attempted to replicate Apollo’s entire 250,000 mile roundtrip journey. This casts doubt on the 1960s technology achieving this.
And lastly, there is an excellent chapter on John Hamer’s book The Falsification of History titled The Apollo moon landings 1969-1972.
Here are a few excerpts:
It takes the space shuttle 66 hours to reach the International Space Station which is a mere 185 miles above Earth. NASA claim Apollo 13 was 55 hours into its duration from lift off when it encountered a problem at a distance of 200,000 miles from Earth.
—
Also, consider this; the surface-to-surface distance from the Earth to the Moon is approximately 235,000 miles and since the last alleged, manned moon landing in 1972, not one human has been further out into space than 400 miles and very few have gone even that distance. Most space-shuttle orbits take place at around 200 miles from the Earth, the same distance away approximately, as the space-station. So, to put these facts into perspective, in the twenty first century, utilising the best technology that money can buy, NASA is only able to send humans around 200 miles into space, but in the 1960s it had the capabilities to reach an object 235,000 miles away, undertake several orbits of the Moon and then make the return trip – all on a single tank of fuel! Please pardon my scepticism here.
As a small postscript to this section it is also worth mentioning the three Apollo astronauts who died for the cause. Virgil ‘Gus’ Grissom, Ed White and Roger Chafee were burned alive during a test procedure in the command module of the Apollo 1 rocket. I believe it to be highly significant that all three were regarded by the NASA hierarchy as ‘troublemakers’ and there is considerable speculation that they did not agree to ‘go along’ with the Moon landings myths. On one occasion, shortly before the tragic fire that claimed their lives, Grissom hung a lemon on a wire coat hanger on the Apollo 1 rocket (picture below) during a publicity photo-shoot and in addition made an unauthorised statement to the press in early January 1967 to the effect that he believed that the ‘Moon landings’ were at least ‘a decade away’, for which he was severely reprimanded. That was probably his death sentence signed and sealed right there and then. Indeed less than a month later all three ‘rebels’ were dead. Shortly before his untimely death Gus Grissom had also said to his wife… ‘If there is ever a serious accident in the space programme, it's likely to be me.’ How prophetic. Ed White’s wife also died within two years of her husband, allegedly by suicide and Scott Grissom, Gus’s son, a commercial airline pilot, adamantly maintains to this day that his father and the two others were murdered by NASA.
—
Of the original astronauts recruited from the US Air Force at the beginning of the space programme, an inordinate number lost their lives in strange, never-to-be-explained circumstances and by such methods as car-crashes, air-crashes and ‘suicides’ among others. In addition to which a gentleman by the name of Thomas Baron who was a safety inspector for NASA and who delivered highly critical testimony and a 1,500 page report to Congress on the catastrophic safety failures of Apollo, only to then be killed along with his daughter less than a week later in an extremely suspicious car ‘accident’. All the copies of his report were seemingly ‘lost’ at the same time too and the one he delivered to Congress was quietly buried with him. If not literally, then certainly metaphorically speaking.
Grissom’s lemon
I stayed up that night in July 1969. I was huge on Mercury, Gemini and Apollo. I cried when Gus Grissom died. I am floored by what I have seen. This is a totality of circumstances with weak attempts at explanation that defy physics. Of course. I was told to wait 50 years to find out who killed John Fitzgerald Kennedy. 50 years came and went. I still have not been told. Deception is certainly a modus operandi of the Federal gub'ment. - gillygil8747

I knew an old NASA engineer and former Marine who told me point-blank, regarding Apollo 1, "NASA killed those men". The capsule was a shoddily built deathtrap - which he claimed he warned his management about. He also told me the story about the radio signal delay on the Apollo 11 mission. The delay increased each day of the mission, until they were about to land on the Moon - then it dropped to zero.
He told me this more than 20 years ago. I'd accepted the Moon Landing narrative completely until that point.
At first I figured he was just an old drunk because of the crazy things he would say... but most of them later turned out to be true.
Now I'm fairly certain the Moon story is, let's say, less than entirely truthful.
For people like me who were born post-Apollo, it's almost like a founding myth of America. And fortunately some are willing to question it. But to others it is more like a religion, even among some who otherwise distrust the government.
My son never would believe that the moon landings were faked. However, he finally watched American Moon and changed his mind.
He told me that the thing that impacted him the most from the movie was at the end where it shows the video of the astronauts when they were interviewed “after returning to earth”. That part starts at 3:23. These are not men that have been positively moved by their experience. They struggle to say anything positive about it. Their faces and body language tell all. They are embarrassed by the whole thing. Compare their demeanor to that of William Shatner after his brief trip into low earth orbit.
If I (or I’ll bet anyone here) had done what no human had ever done before, we would be ecstatic about it. I would be on a high that would last months. I’d want to share that feeling with anyone who would listen. I would not be sullen.
Listen to what Buzz Aldrin says to people who want to become astronauts. This is not a man who is proud of what he has done.
