Because, the truth is important.
Also, it's one of the coolest things ever done.
Any time I look up at the moon, I can say, 'we've been there!'
We walked on another world, we have been wanting to do that almost as long as we have looked up at the moon. We have been telling stories about doing so almost as long.
And on July 20th, 10:39 EDT 1969, for the first time, we did.
It was a metal strip so it catches the light in just that way, also it is from exactly where the antenna was.
And how come the Soviets, who the hoax would be primarily then aimed at, never let the world know it was a hoax?
They had their own experts, their own orbiters, landers, and rovers. Hells, they even had their own rock samples.
They also tracked the Apollo spacecraft.
If anyone would know it was a hoax, it would be the former USSR.
And think of the propaganda value, of showing the word what lying Capitalist pigs the US was.
So why didn't they say anything?
