How do you mean "we"? I didn't. Did you?

I think the moon shot was real.

Ever since Luke Skywalker first went to the moon there have been questions...

For those who haven't being paying attention:
1. The Earth isn't flat.
2. Life on Earth evolved, it wasn't created. Humans are a species of great ape.
3. Mankind has landed on the moon.
4. Covid-19 really exists and has killed millions of people.
5. Elvis isn't alive and working in a fish and chip shop in Wales.
6. Donald Trump really is an interdimensional being from another reality.

See, that's what happens when people get things distorted and then they become urban legends, Elvis is actually running a bait and tackle shop on Wallops Island, Virginia.

Re Item 2.

For what it is worth: it is quite possible that it was created and evolved (both).
It is also possible it was created to look like it evolved. Like starting a record in the middle - studying the record and how it typically proceeds doesn't really tell you the past of the record. Studying a clock and how it usually proceeds doesn't really tell you wether or not the clock was set ahead by the clock maker, especially if you are part of the clock while you are studying it. If the world (and the laws of physics, the universe and so-on) was designed by an intelligent being, it is not sound reasoning to assume that that being would be governed BY the laws of the universe, any more than it would be to assume that a computer programmer would be governed by the same laws as the computer program, or a railway train engineer would be governed by the same rules as the railway engine.
Science cannot even accurately predict the weather three days in the future (much less 30 days). It is a bit unreasonable to assume it can accurately describe the past hundreds and thousands and millions and billions and trillions of years away.
No one alive today was even alive as long as 200 years ago. Recorded history goes back no more than 5000 years.
Assuming Science has all the answers is "Science Worship" not "Science". And it shows ignorance of things in "Science History" like confusion about the orbit of Mercury.
Science doesn't have all the answers. Never did, and never will.

● Wikipedia - Butterfly effect

I don't want to be a Science Worshiper.
I do like Science.
I've decided to be open minded.

(let the flame wars from Science Worshipers please commence)

Creationists lost that argument many decades ago. I no longer debate flat earthers, creationists and QAnon lizard people conspiracy theorists. Life is too short to try to reason people out of positions they haven't reasoned themselves into.

Aldrin is also on the record for saying that he saw a UFO and that NASA covered it up.

The moon was discovered in 2005. I rest my case.

I mean if the moon doesn't have a geostationary orbit how come the view I always see 365 days of the year is always the same?

You are asking that in a sarcastic or facetious, or something, vein, right?

I ask that because the answer has been widely known for years, decades, centuries.
