Moon Landing Doubts

Shadows, flags, missing tapes. And still — retroreflectors sit on the surface, answering lasers.

The hoax case collapses on its own logistics — 400,000 conspirators, retroreflectors that answer lasers from any observatory, rocks with no terrestrial isotopes. But the doubt itself is the interesting artifact: it was seeded in 1976 by a single self-published pamphlet, and it grew because the government that went to the Moon was simultaneously running COINTELPRO and burning MKULTRA files. Institutions that lie about some things lose the benefit of the doubt on all things. That's not physics. That's the actual mechanism.
