Default Less Apollo 11, more Thunderbird 11. Wires prove the Apollo moonlandings were filmed on a set.

I wonder how they attached wires to all the dust particles.

Sylvia.


Very tediously, it was done my little old ladies in tennis shoes in
Korean sweat shops.


Not sure about that. After all, it's moderately skilled work. You have
to weigh the particle, then attach the wire without injuring yourself
(the wire would be very thin), find a suitable counterbalance weight,
making allowance for the weight of the wire itself, attach the
counterbalance weight to the other end.

Make any mistakes, and the conspiracy theory nuts will have a field day.
All they have to do is find one particle that doesn't follow the correct
trajectory, and the gaff is blown.
