Upvote for being honest enough that you admit how little you know about this.

Yes, we've been to the moon, and no it wasn't a hoax.

If it was a hoax, the Soviet Union and China were both in on it, and supported the USA "winning the space race" without blowing the whistle for their own reasons. Which is not bloody likely. Imagine the propaganda coup they would have if they caught out the US lying about putting a manned space ship on the moon.

As far as the flag goes, it wasn't flapping in the wind. More info here.

I don't know what picture you are referring to here.

You should read this (mostly) decent article about the hoax theories. Aside from believing the "Russian anti-vax" disinformation, it's mostly pretty good.

Having said all that, you should watch "Moonwakers", it's bloody grouse. Forget the negative reviews, it is a wonderfully quirky comedy about faking the moon landing 😀

I think it wise when approaching any debate is to recognize that I might not be in possession of all of the facts.

It is really boring to debate something with someone that ihas already decided about their position and they are rigid and not flexible.
