Did the Americans put a man on the moon?

This is a big plot hole in the conspiracy that is never really explained.

Most moon hoax believers only contend that soon or all of the Apollo missions are faked. They were faked to win the space race and after that there was no need to fake anything else.

With the flat earthers however, it's a different issue.

If they are already faking space missions then there's no reason for them not to fake more manned landings.

It can't be because doing so is too expensive. Markus is claiming that they are already spending trillions to fake space missions that the vast majority of people don't care about as well as paying off all scientists and science youtubers. And on top of that they are somehow is making a profit from it.

It can't be that it's too difficult because we've been told that they were able to fool the greatest mathematicians on Earth at the time using only 60s technology. So unless it's going to be argued that the technology to fake the landings has somehow regressed since the 60s it is now much easier to fake landings. We are also told that all space images and videos released are completely fake so they would not have any issue faking new images from the moon or Mars.

And it can't be that they are afraid of exposing the theory. They are pumping out faked missions every year to a public that isn't paying any attention. According to theorists these are already chock full of obvious mistakes and errors that prove they are fake even to people with no knowledge or training in science. So the conspirators clearly cannot be afraid of exposure due to attention or errors.

Like with all aspects of this theory, if you actually stop and think about it with any depth or look into the "nitty gritty" for more than a second, it falls apart.

There's certain things in the videos that are impossible to fake.

For instance when you see the lunar rovers driving around you can see the dust being kicked up by the wheels doesn't behave like dust on Earth. It flies in parabolic arcs rather in big clouds because there is no air for it to do so.

The only way to fake that would to put the whole sound stage the were on into a vacuum chamber and keep it at a near perfect vacuum for the lenght of the shot.

Then eve if you did make the largest most perfect vacuum chamber in history it still wouldn't work because you can see the dust is falling as if it was in lesser gravity.

The only way to fake this would be to put that massive vacuum chamber in a plane and fly parabolic arcs like the vomit comet. (Though since we are seeing that physics is being rewritten on this thread, there's no guarantee that this would even work.)

The only other option would be to use cgi to simulate the millions and millions of dust particles, which isn't possible either because we are being told that they only had the computing power equivalent to pocket calculators.

And even then assuming that they over came this by building a giant flying vacuum chamber or inventing hyperadvanced computer graphics decades ahead of everyone else, they're doing so to fabricate the dust flying off the wheels of the rover. Why would they go to all of that effort and expense to fake since a minor thing.

Why would they do so, but then in other aspects be completely lazy and incompetent and leave obvious clues, like the claim the flags are bowing in the wind.
