On the October 30 episode of ‘The Kardashians,’ Kim Kardashian is reigniting a decades-old conspiracy theory: that the 1969 US moon landing never happened. Her defense? “They’re gonna say I’m crazy no matter what,” she said. “But like, go to TikTok. See for yourself.”
She tried to convince actress Sarah Paulson on set of their upcoming show, 'All's Fair,' citing viral clips and articles she claims support her view. “This girl asks Buzz Aldrin, ‘What was the scariest moment?’ And he goes, ‘There was no scary moment, 'cause it didn’t happen.’”
She also pointed to visual inconsistencies: “There’s no gravity on the moon—why is the flag blowing? The shoes in the museum don’t match the footprints in the photos. Why are there no stars?”
Indeed, despite overwhelming scientific consensus, the moon landing hoax theory continues to thrive online, fueled by viral content and digital echo chambers. Click through the following gallery to explore why this theory endures, and what it says about our relationship with truth.
