In the early days of the Cold War, three men claim they were chosen by a powerful new government agency to undertake a historically perilous journey. They claim this well-funded operation was staffed with the best scientists and engineers using technology pioneered by the Nazis, and they created the most powerful machine ever built.
In July of 1969, they claim, they climbed aboard an enormous rocket assembled in a Florida swamp, and were sent hurtling at incredible speeds into the sky … all the way to the Moon! Two of them even claim they landed on the Moon, got out, and walked around!
And what prize did they bring back from this momentous journey? Well … they have a bunch of black and white photos of unidentifiable persons in bulky white spacemen costumes in a field of gravel (but curiously without any stars in the black sky) -- and several bags of gray, dusty rocks.

didn't they prove it was a camera/exposure issue causing the stars not to show up in the pics?

yup. its blatantly because everything else drowns them out. i mean, the sun was out. even with no scattering atmosphere, the sun is a wee bit brighter than the other stars.

I remember seeing a program hosted by Sir Patrick Moore that disproved each of the conspiracy theorist's "reasons" why the moon landings were faked. It was a lot more convincing/scientific in its approach than similar programs supporting the "fake" camp. Consequently, I think we did go to the moon.

i "think" we did because we have learned so much from the returned apollo samples, which far outweigh the few grams the soviets could muster.
there was no reason to fake the missions apart from cold war propaganda, and if it was just propaganda then why not just stop after a single "been there done that" landing? no, they kept going with extended missions until 1972.

and we also have armalcolite, hapkeite and other minerals that are known only from the moon.

Examples of this mineral [armalcolite] were later discovered in various locations on Earth as well, such as Smoky Butte, Garfield County, Montana, USA in lamproite dikes and plugs; Disko Island, (Greenland) in native iron; Pripyat Swell (around the Pripyat River, Ukraine) in trachybasalt and in South African kimberlites.

Thor Heyerdahl travelled to the moon on a boat made of balsa and cannabis. He never went to polynesia at all.
