Kim Kardashian enlightened by NASA after claiming moon landing was ‘fake’

Kim Kardashian got schooled by NASA for claiming that the moon landing wasn’t real.

One of the most prolific conspiracy theories of the modern age is the so-called “moon landing hoax” which attempts to convince people that the United States faked landing on the moon. While skepticism might be worth entertaining on many subjects, NASA acting Administrator Sean Duffy wasn’t about to allow Kardashian to spew such rhetoric unchallenged.

It all started when Kardashian was talking to Sarah Paulson on the latest episode of the family’s show, “The Kardashians.” She was trying to convince the other woman that the landing never actually happened, claiming that astronaut Buzz Aldrin even admitted it.

“I’m sending you, so far, a million articles with both Buzz Aldrin and … the other one,” Kardashian said, referring to Neil Armstrong.

“Yes, do it,” Paulson encouraged.

“This girl says, ‘What was the scariest moment?’ And [Aldrin] goes, ‘There was no scary moment, cause it didn’t happen. It could’ve been scary, but it wasn’t, cause it didn’t happen,'” Kardashian adds.

“So, I think it didn’t happen.”

A producer on the show clarified Kardashian’s take on the subject when she went back to her trailer later.

“I don’t think we did. I think it was fake,” she said. “I’ve seen a few videos [of] Buzz Aldrin talking about how it didn’t happen. He says it all the time now in interviews.”

“Why does Buzz Aldrin say it didn’t happen? There’s no gravity on the moon. Why is the flag blowing? The shoes that they have in the museum that they wore on the moon [have] a different [foot]print than the photos. Why are there no stars?” she asked.

Duffy shared a clip of the moment with his own statement”

Yes, [Kim Kardashian], we’ve been to the Moon before… 6 times! And even better: [NASA Artemis] is going back under the leadership of [President Donald Trump.] We won the last space race and we will win this one too,” he wrote.

Kardashian actually responded to the post:

“Wait…. what’s the tea on 3I Atlas?!?!!!!!!!?????” she asked, referring to the interstellar comet that just passed incredibly close to the sun.
