I realize I have a duty as the OP, but I cannot Like the allusion to a real problem: people who believe it was a put-on. In 1972 I touched the Command Module from Apollo 8. It had these so-cool scorch marks wrapping around the shield end. Watching the space program on TV was a formative experience when I was a kid. Having a dad who knew and cared about space boosted the power of the experience.

I don't know if I'd call that a 'real' problem or not.
I know they went, you know they went and anybody with a fucking brain knows they went.
If somebody wants to be stupid and say it's a hoax from watching a YT video, I can't accept responsibility for it.

I use work for a guy whose dad worked in Huntsville ( rocket scientist ) and the guy I for was smart but........
So one day were building a roof system on a multi million dollar house and he is trying to figure some rafter lengths and I said need some help and he said fuck you my dad was a rocket scientist and your dad was a drunk well I said fuck you too. ...... And then I got tired of waiting and went and and installed the rafters and he said how did you figure that and I said it's basic building skills and then I asked what was so difficult and he tried to explain and I noticed right away he was using 3.17 for pi so I said well there's the problem asshole pi is 3.14 . He freaked out and repeated that his dad was a rocket scientist and my dad was a drunk so I said well if you're dad was here he'd tell you that pi is 3.14 now go get us so beer .
