Science? Which science..., what equations will show that there is a teapot orbiting the sun right now?

Classical gravitational equations that break down whenever we try to calculate the direction of more than 2 objects in a vacuum?
Or perhaps theoretical ideas about the very nature of the universe and the underlying principles of the interactions between fluctuating fields of energy? Which break down whenever we try to pin point a vector that would tell us the exact location or speed of anything?

The fact of the matter is that we can't tell that this thing landed on the moon or that the other thing is orbiting the sun at all, and so if you believe it that's great. If you don't believe it tho it's interesting to see it from the other side's perspective and imagine what might motivate an entire government and its people to say such a thing in the first place.

Look at the final seconds before the landing, and you see a room full of politicians and their employees applauding at a bunch of screens with CGI models of the supposed craft, other screens are showing video-game style maps with curved lines showing the trajectory of the craft... They're applauding a Kerbal Space Program simulation like people clap in church. It's honestly not much different lately with anything NASA...

Let's not even get into SpaceX, all you've ever seen is a rocket taking off and a rocket landing, everything in-between is computer animated simulations. I guess it's OK as long as everyone enjoys it.

The Indian "moon landing" is the fakest thing I've ever seen and I'm talking about the actual "footage" not the 50s animation shit they were applauding.

I am not a conspiracist, I love Neil Armstrong, and Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins.
I've learned all there is to know about their journey, but even Buzz Aldrin will on go on record stating that we've never seen footage of the moon landing because there is none. It is all computer simulations. KSP brothers, it's my favorite game. I wish space travel was real.

The framerate seems to be around 3FPS.

It's laughable at best.

The moon is said to be 1.3 light seconds from earth on average. Think about that guys, that is about the same 'ms' rate of lag as someone from Australia playing an MMO! The quality should not be this bad, there is no excuse.

Edit: to be clear, I mean that the quality of video stream from the surface of the moon should be no worse than a video call with someone in a country with bad internet. Yet they give us videos with this clay-mation-like framerate and quality. OK. Sure.

The Moon is roughly 238,000 miles from earth. You are talking a 10x+ latency.

So you're just wrong, first of all.
Second of all, I won't entertain any further lol.
