Seeing isn't always believing. Especially when it comes to TV.
Special effects weren't very good in 1969. We see the CGI done today and if gives the impression that you could fake stuff. Couldn't be done then. Prior to green screen, EVERYTHING was cheesy and fake looking. Even after it, it took a decade for effects to get really good.
We lacked the technology to fake the moon landing in 1969, sorry wackos, it couldn't be done.
Yawnnn
Alwasy the same old one. Where is the creativity?!
I take it you have never seen "2001 a space odyssee"
Most people back then were flabbergasted by the technology.
and the impressive cinematography.
And the , alleged, moonlanding filns were worse then that movie!
For goodness sake it was even recorded from a tv-screen
Btw 2001" was made by the same moviemaker who has helped staging the moonlandings, Stanley Kubrick.
