Even a back yard 5K range higher quality telescope should be able to make out decent details on the surface, no? Along the lines of what I was suggesting, shouldn't there be a way to verify such things with current day tech and without using classified platforms?

No telescope from earth can see material left by the moon landings. Some space telescopes/moon satellites supposedly are able to produce images with left material showing in the images. But a couple of shiny pixels is all we've been shown.
That's weird to me. We have the tech or not?
No, at least not in place they claim, they certainly are capable of it. They would have to put a satellite in moon orbit with a high enough resolution camera. The US has some satellites in moon orbit, one with a camera, and they showed pictures of the China moon lander and Rover Jade Rabbit. The lander and rover were bright spots and you could see the tracks left by the rover and see the route it traveled. Although I wouldn't be surprised if they can do way better but they don't wanna reveal that because then the scientists and public would want access to more of that high res material. And that wouldn't suit them well.
That should be good enough to convince people then, correct? I've never understood why this has remained such a conspiracy over the years. :)
That were all unmanned space craft, the doubt is about the manned missions.
The Russians never landed a man on the moon, while they were first with everything else.
and when I see this LEM lift off my doubt grows. skip to 40sec.
Looking forward to the results, not sure why people are so upset about this, we should never emotionally react to information. Personally I do not care either way, just an interesting subject. A new image of the 1969 mission should be of historical interest with the 50th anniversary approaching, same as the Titanic exploration.
