Technically, they made it first if you count lithobraking as a valid landing technique.

Technically, lithobraking is the final stage of any descent, but high speed lithobraking is usually not conducive for future mission objectives.

It would be interesting to learn what the āmoonlanding never happenedā crowd has to say. Must be some next-level brain exercise to keep the story going. š

Not the more crazy ones. They believe there's literally a barrier in the sky that prevents objects from going past a certain altitude. It stems from old abrahamic religious texts of an impenetrable "firmament" surrounding the Earth.

Iām not doubting itās real. (Itās pretty obvious with the reflections on the solar panels.) But, the lighting looks weird on the Moon, like it has this painting quality to it.

We should colonize it so we can give it a repaint!
Itās a combination of two major factors: The camera is pretty low-resolution, both in its ability to take video, and pixel density, and because thereās no atmosphere to give us the āblurā and color filtration weāre so used to seeing around objects.
