Some people think the first moon landing where Neil Armstrong was the first man to walk on the moon was actually a hoax. This is based on the USA flag moving in the picture and some skeptics thinking it was actually just a man walking in a television studio with special effects added in to make it look like space.
The flag was positioned by the astronauts in a haphazard way that did not allow it to sit up straight. This gives the impression it is waving when in fact it is just the way the flag has been spaced along with the shadows being cast from the spacecraft and other equipment. As the pictures are not of great quality, it is very easy for images to appear like they are moving when they are actually stationary.
Another conspiracy theory includes the notion that Neil Armstrong was filmed by a cameraman. All the other astronauts who made the mission can be seen in the film so skeptics do not understand how he could've been filmed without it being in a television studio by a cameraman. The truth is he was actually filmed by a Lunar Module camera that provided live satellite images from space.
Some people do not believe it was a real moon landing, as there are only very short clips of film. This is due to the fact that NASA scientists did not want the astronauts to be affected by any radiation coming from the surface of the moon. Their time on the surface was therefore kept to a minimum.
