Fake Moon Landing Theories Cast Some Doubt On America's Proudest Accomplishment
TMZ STUDIOS 'STRANGE & SUSPICIOUS' Moon Landing Footage Fake?!?
Arguably the biggest accomplishment in United States history is now the subject of a popular conspiracy ... with lotsa folks convinced NASA never really went to the moon.
TMZ Studios' new series, "Strange & Suspicious," examines weird and unexplained stories ... and here we're taking a look at the possibility the 1969 moon landing footage was shot in a movie studio as opposed to the actual lunar surface.
Conspiracy theorists love to point to the famous photo of Buzz Aldrin standing next to the U.S.A. flag after planting it on the moon ... the flag is crinkled and looks to be waving, and folks say there's just no wind in space.
On the flip side, believers say the flag was only moving when Buzz was actually screwing it into the lunar surface ... because of physics and all.
Other conspiracy theory talking points include the lack of stars in the background of the videos and photos ... but our crew tries debunking those too.
Still, it doesn't help NASA lost all the original footage from the 1969 Apollo 11 moon landing ... this just gives more ammo to doubters.
We examine all sides of the argument ... but don't worry, no one goes full Buzz and throws a punch!!!
"Strange & Suspicious" is now airing on a dozen FOX stations ... click here to see when and where the show airs.
