The famous TV star Kim Kardashian has shocked social networks and public opinion with her latest statement, where she openly expressed her disbelief in one of the greatest events in human history – the landing of man on the moon in 1969.
In a new episode of her series “The Kardashians”, Kim declared that she is convinced that the “Apollo 11” mission and the moment when Neil Armstrong first set foot on the lunar surface were “staged”.
“I don’t think it happened,” – said Kardashian, thus joining the list of public figures who embrace the conspiracy theory of the fake landing on the moon.
Debate with Sarah Paulson and Kim’s “proof”
During the filming of the drama series “All’s Fair”, Kim tried to convince the famous actress Sarah Paulson to doubt the authenticity of this historical moment.
“I’m going to send you a million articles about Buzz Aldrin and… that other guy,” she said humorously, referring to legendary astronaut Neil Armstrong. Paulson replied with a laugh: “Yeah, do it.”
Kardashian then described a video that, according to her, shows the moment when Buzz Aldrin “admits” that the moon landing didn’t happen.
“He’s 95 years old now and he’s telling the truth because he doesn’t care what other people think anymore,” she added.
Her arguments: “The flag, the footprints and the lack of stars”
Kim Kardashian listed several “evidences” that, according to her, support the theory that everything was a scenario invented by NASA to win the space race against the Soviet Union during the Cold War.
Among them, she mentioned:
The American flag waving, even though the moon has no atmosphere or wind;
The footprints of the astronauts, which, according to her, do not match those exhibited in the museum;
The lack of stars in the background of photographs taken on the lunar surface.
“I think we were never there. It was fake. I saw some videos where Buzz Aldrin admits it himself and repeats it often,” Kardashian added in a conversation with the producers of the show.
Reactions and criticism
Kim Kardashian’s statement has sparked numerous reactions on social networks. Some followers accused her of spreading misinformation and inciting conspiracy theories, while others defended her, saying that “she has the right to think differently.”
Space experts and NASA historians have reiterated that the 1969 moon landing is documented with over 382 kilograms of lunar rock samples, thousands of hours of broadcasts, and the testimonies of hundreds of engineers and astronauts who participated in the “Apollo” program.
However, Kim Kardashian’s statement has brought one of the oldest and most controversial theories of the last century back into the spotlight — the famous question: Was the moon landing a historical reality or a monumental hoax?
