NASA Uncle on the Moon Landing

My Uncle Worked for NASA and Here’s What He Said About the Moon Landing My uncle was one

of the smartest people I’ve ever met. He had a PhD in physics and spent

most of his career working for NASA in the 70s and 80s. He wasn’t an astronaut, but he was heavily

involved in research and development for space missions. When I was a teenager, I asked him the

big question: “Did we really land on the moon?” He didn’t laugh, didn’t roll his

eyes—just gave me this tired smile and said, “Kid, if you knew how

many people it takes to fake something like that, you’d realize it’s easier to just go

to the damn moon.” That answer has stuck with me ever since.
