Fact: You can see the Apollo landing sites using a powerful amateur telescope. The remnants of the Apollo missions can be spotted if you look at the images from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter.

The world has its eyes on NASA to reveal insights into the progress of the landing. But the landing by NASA wasn’t the only one.

Moon landings have taken place through both robotic and crewed missions. The first robotic object made by humans to land on the Moon was Luna 2, launched by the Soviet Union on 13, September 1959.

Did NASA fake land on the moon?

People think that the landing on the moon was faked by NASA, which is absolutely and utterly impossible. People who think that are woefully underprepared. 12 astronauts have stepped on the moon with more than 400,000 people involved in the Apollo program. This is one of humanity’s greatest achievements, and there is no way it could ever be faked.
