The recurring theme of lunar landing skepticism in my family's holiday dinners

During our last Thanksgiving, the conversation inevitably turned to the Apollo missions, with my uncle vehemently arguing that the footage was staged. What struck me was how my younger cousins, who are usually quiet, became animated in defending the official account. This divide isn't just about facts, it's about generational perspectives and the authority we assign to institutions. Observing these annual discussions has made me more aware of how conspiracy theories serve as a litmus test for trust within kinship groups.

Saw a documentary on the retroreflectors, ever watch that?

Painfully dry viewing. Still, the archival footage they dug up was impressive. My uncle insists the data's been faked since the 70s, which makes holidays exhausting. The science is solid, but the presentation could use a spark. Honestly, it's the kind of documentary that puts you to sleep but you're glad you watched it.
