won't settle it

One or the other side will just call whatever they come up with lies and nobody will be convinced. Anyway, haven't both the Russians and Chinese already had satellites orbiting the moon? Them not piping up about it means bubkes too. So you have to use other means.
Beside all the weirdly incongruent anomalies I've posted here over the years, there's the fact of the radiation belts and the physical impossibility of getting the lander back off the surface of the moon in the manner stated. According to my smoking buddy, who purports to know, sometimes rather convincingly, a craft using field propulsion would create a radiation-proof bubble or envelope around itself, getting humans safely through them going and returning, and field propulsion could get the lander back off the surface of the moon, which would account for the storied lack of blown up dust or marks left to indicate combustion propulsion.
That's all fine and dandy sugar candy... but it doesn't answer if they went at all or just played astronauts for Stanley's biggest blockbuster.
I'd like to be able to say for sure, but the whole measurement of radiation is so obfuscated by fifty different ways of expressing it that I can't tell. I just can say that the last time I looked about the radiation level at the VanAllen Belts it struck me that it was more than at Fukushima. Supposedly there's been all kinds of equipment failures at Fukushima due to the radiation... so... the whole story gets very, very weird from whatever angle you want to look at it... IF you are ignoring what you were only told and purportedly shown back at the time and paying attention to the evidence of a real physics they don't teach you about in school.
The last nail in my credulity's coffin was 9/11. I bent my brain on that one, on every nuance of it, and there's only ONE explanation that accounts for ALL the observables... which then puts us in the world of field effects, field propulsion, flying saucers, physical manipulation of the medium, space being a plasma, electrical... just like we are.
Anyway, I'd say this little tidbit is Putin's way of yanking the psychopaths' chain.
always and any time....
