    Firstly you're confusing how the burden of proof works - you don't make spurious claims and then suggest it's on the other side to disprove them and you win if they don't - see Russell's Teapot.

    Anyway, onto the vids.

    Video 1 - Doesn't look or sound like Kubrick. Funny how the video is shot mostly in shadow, almost as if someone was trying to obscure the fact that it's not really him...

    Video 2 - No reasonable person could interpret that way. I admit it is a bit bumbly but then he talks about wanting to understand why it "stopped" when they wanted to "keep it going". This clearly illustrates that he was talking about not having been to the moon since the Apollo program, and not never having been in the first place.

    Video 3 - Here you go - an explanation with evidence as to how the footage was cut from Capricorn One, the making of Capricorn One and the actual moon landings - Fact Check-Video claiming to prove fakery of moon landings uses authentic footage interspersed with clips from fictional movie ‘Capricorn One’ | Reuters

    Video 4 - Why not? This was some years after communication via satellite was established.

    As for the election, did you ever pay out to charity after losing the bet?

    As I had posted earlier on this thread about the Bulova watch that went to the moon, in 2015 to 2017 there was a legal case as to whether or not had been on the moon. It was found it had.
    The litigation (the only case I know of revolving around a court deciding if we had gone to the moon or not) pitted Citizen Watch co against The Swatch group, two very litigious conglomerates who between them have a hand in around 40-50% of the watches sold in the world. I'm quite sure Swatch group would used every expert and picked at every angle to try and prove the watch hadn't been on the moon but ended up conceding it had. This included analysis of the dust particles on it and digitally re-mastering the voice and camera recordings
    Also the Apollo 15 astronaut involved, David Scott and all the crew of that mission were sacked as astronauts for taking bribes to take souvenirs to the moon for resale by commercial associates. It might be a bit strong to call them money grabbing malcontents but I can't help thinking that if it was all a hoax, at least one of them would have broken ranks and sold what would have been the greatest scoop of all time to the media. If it was a hoax, three out of four have taken it to their graves instead.

    Faked, never happened, and it's just a matter of time when the true extent of the fake landings come to light, a bit like Covid the truth will come out one day.

    So you believe they faked all 6 landings? Moreover you believe they sent the reflective materials to the moon unmanned to perpetuate to ruse further?

    A well reasoned opinion, backed up by peer reviewed sources.

    I remember reading back in the ‘70s that the Soviets were dropping the idea of going to the moon and were going to finance research into controlling the weather instead. Wonder if they made any progress.

    I think the entire world has made progress on that.

    It went the same way as the attempt by the Chinese to control transmisable resparatory diseases

    If you watch the recent documentaries on Chernobyl, they made it rain to keep a radioactive cloud from reaching Moscow for the 1986 may Day parade. What is it with Russians? They have bad leaders, periodically rise up, overthrow them then sleepwalk into letting more bad leaders take over.
