What are you talking about, we all know the lunar landings were faked to bankrupt the soviets /j
Seriously though, best bet for long distance space exploration just like they said in that movie is to find a wormhole. It’s probably the only real way to travel across the universe in any reasonable amount of time.

Why would it bankrupt them when they were never going to the moon?
At least, that’s what some people seem to believe.

Not sure, I guess the idea is that in the film they were saying they faked the space race to get the Soviets to work harder and waste money, but it doesn’t really make sense and I think that’s the whole point. It’s meant to be absurd propaganda.

Which is why in the movie, cooper isn’t at all mad that his daughter got into a fist fight with some kids over them believing and denying the original real textbooks which explain how man did actually land on the moon.
