There is a question I've always wanted to ask someone who's convinced that the moon landings were faked.

Where the line is between fake and real? Was it the entire Apollo program or just the six landings? Obviously there has been some space travel by humans at the time. In your view how far did we get before faking the rest? Did we just stop with Gemini and say 'screw it the rest is too hard'?

I can acknowledge that it seems superficially anomalous to have people flying to the moon using slide rules, but it's not like NASA just pointed a finger and decided to go. There were a number of steps along the way where each step makes sense compared to the next one. If Apollo 8-10 were real, then 11 seems entirely plausible.
