Thousands of photographs and hours of video document the missions.

The Apollo missions produced an incredible amount of visual evidence. We have thousands of photographs and countless hours of video footage showing the astronauts on the Moon, the lunar landscape, and the equipment they used. These images have been analyzed countless times by experts. Experts can confirm the authenticity of these photos and videos. For example, shadows fall exactly as they should under a single light source (the Sun), and the way dust behaves in the Moon's low gravity is consistent with physics. These visual records give us a front-row seat to history and show details that would be incredibly difficult, if not impossible, to fake convincingly.
