It would be interesting to learn what the "moonlanding never happened" crowd has to say. Must be some next-level brain exercise to keep the story going. πŸ˜„

Aren’t they generally ok with crew-less landings and mostly deny actual humans landing on the moon?

Not the more crazy ones. They believe there's literally a barrier in the sky that prevents objects from going past a certain altitude. It stems from old abrahamic religious texts of an impenetrable "firmament" surrounding the Earth.

Yea, they claim if we're only getting rovers out there now, there no way humans actually made it there.

I believe humans walked on the moon but they lied about how they got there.
