Was the landing on the moon a fake or real

Given the 900+ kg of moon rocks (clearly distinct from any rocks found on Earth) retrieved which show signs of having been collected deliberately rather than randomly scooped up; the fact that all of these missions were ruthlessly tracked by the US, the USSR, the Australians, and numerous civilian observatories and radio operators; given that the pictures and footage are thoroughly consistent with a 1/6g near vacuum environment, and terrain has been matched perfectly to maps generated by Japanese and EU lunar probe missions; given the difficulties of silencing the thousands of external contractors, let alone NASA employees; given the Saturn V's proven capabilities (including the launch of Skylab as a single piece); given that creating a hoax to satisfy the previous would have been notably more complex than simply going there, yes, I figure it was real.

The Moon landings (there were SIX of them) were all real.

The six Apollo Moon landings are among the best documented events in human history: thousands of pictures, hours of video, 382 kg. of Moon rocks, and millions of eye witnesses, including myself. There is not a single scientist in the world who doubts that they took place. To deny them is to discredit the magnificent achievement of the team which went to the Moon, and to reveal abysmal scientific ignorance.

The proofs of the Moon landings have been documented in detail on web sites like these:

If further proof is needed, NASA recently released images from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter showing 5 of the 6 Apollo landers, still on the surface of the Moon:

It was real. and so were the other five. And the other three flights that went to the Moon without landing on it.

Faking it to the level of complexity seen in the pictures and video would have been harder than actually going.
