I don't think we did, but I think the technical capabilities were absolutely there to make it happen and it makes for a fun story to talk about.
Making particulates and dust float the way they do in low gravity vacuum is incredibly complex and I would argue impossible pre modern CGI
If, IF there was a soundstage couldn't you use a sealed tank pumped with helium or nitrogen or something (since they're in suits) and just raise the buoyancy of shit floating around?
There's a youtube video of a bunch of SFX experts explaining why it's impossible to have been faked.
If I remember right the two big issues are the way the objects look in the videos don't make sense if it's a sound stage, the way the dust and such moves only works if there is NO gas present at all.
IIRC the lighting was basically impossible to recreate w/o spending more than we did on the rockets we used to get to the moon, and that's assuming they had secret advanced lighting techniques that didn't exist back then anyways.

It would be significantly harder to fake the moon landing than it would be to actually do it. If you upgrade the cameras and broadcast tech to 2021 standards, then this still holds today.
There are tons of details that make it extremely unlikely to be fake, having to do with the broadcast to the technical task of editing, to the contents of the images.
The broadcast was long and involved too many people to control information on. Ground control parts of the broadcast were demonstrably live and had an public audience. The logistics of syncing that life performance to premade tapes from the moon would be near impossible to do perfectly.
forensic analysis of the moon video says it came hot off an analog camera or off a tape. There is no film grain on it and it distorts like analog video. video tape wasn't invented yet and you certainly couldn't edit video them for special effects. everything would have needed to be done live and in-camera. the effects shown are WAY beyond that
the lighting in the moon videos suggests a single point source ~infinitely far away which is nearly impossible to produce on a sound stage. it would have to be colossal. dust and debris move naturally for 1/6 gravity with no atmosphere, hard to fake today, impossible then.
the list goes on. moon landing being fake doesn't even remotely pass the smell test for plausibility.
All you've done is proven that, since the moon landing is fake, the government must have had access to sophisticated CG for decades before it became popular, and that's also how they faked JFK's assassination
if i get the chat it is going to be terrible just a heads up
I'm not usually active near the end of a chat, so I'm sitting here hoping it's not me because I don't wanna let people down but I also wanna go get lunch.
