...and you probably will know the truth when no one really cares about anymore. For instance if the moon landings were indeed faked, you will truly know probably when an habitable moon base will be installed for once. I mean, they assure there's no interest in landing in the moon again but there's interest in sending people to mars when they haven't covered the reachable basics. On the other hand if by Moon you refer to "Raising Moon" by José Escamilla, the very same who made us believe rods exists, then i see what are you pointing at.
