remember this? https://youtu.be/MKbwdTCL8rA
Just after the "Mars landing," the camera pulls back from a close-up of the glare of the astronaut's helmet, so we can see the lander, casting an odd shadow against the Martian sky, and then the stage lights and a crew member of the set. It would have been a great reveal shot, except Capricorn One has already informed us that the event belongs in quotation marks.

Perhaps the most influential bearer of bringing the moon landing hoax conspiracies into the relative mainstream, the movie tells the tale of a faked expedition to Mars by NASA, which has been watching its ratings drop after the moon started to bore people who wrote to complain that I Love Lucy reruns were canceled.

i always found it so weird that they never had discussions about the sand ... the details of the views ... the other planets & phototos from that angle etc etc etc

would’nt you be interviewed on every tv show to discuss details ?

& They never went back
