According to a number of sources, in 2019, the site known by its revelations published a video that captures the earthly filming of Apollo-11. We checked whether Wikileaks really shared such sensational news.

Strictly speaking, the news can be divided into two. Firstly, this is the announcement of the upcoming revelations. It was said in it following:

“The WikiLeaks portal, in recent years, has fallen into the news release mainly in connection with the arrest of Julian Assange, the issuance of which is required by the United States, again loudly declared himself. Exclusive secret materials created WikiLeaks the glory of the source of irrefutable sensational information. This time we are talking about documents that should confirm long -standing rumors that the Government of the United States of America and NASA hid the truth about the Apollo program and the landings on the moon. <...> The documents were allegedly transferred to the Assange with a senior NASA employee who was tired of enduring the lie, which the United States fed humanity for half a century. A video that began to fly the entire planet was actually shot on Earth. The role of the moon was played by the desert in Nevada. And supposedly part of the filming was made in the studio pavilion, where Stanley Kubrick created his “space odysseal”. But only a few people knew about this. And in July 1969, it was supposedly documentary cinema was watched by more than half a billion people. ”

Julian Assange himself was also given: “These documents open the true nature of the deception of the Apollo program.” In this form, the information distributed the television channel "TV Center", news agency Live24as well as portals "Around.t.", Dni24.com, "Glas.ru".

The second type of information is directly a sensational video. It is curious that in the Russian -language segment of the network the main surge of the announcement of the announcement was in June 2021, although the video itself already in 2019, shortly after the arrest of Assange, actively walked along the rune (Vk, "Reporter", "Picabu"). Which, however, did not prevent him from gaining popularity again two years later (Trendymen, Planet Today).

Conspirological theories around the first landing of a person on the moon are not news, but they are often addressed by sources that have a certain authority in the declaration of information. A striking example of the latter is the Wikileaks resource, the creator of which Julian Assange even considered As a real contender for the Nobel Prize of the World. However, you should not even try to find the specified video or any mention of it on the official website Wikileaks or in associated social networks. They are not there.

The sensational announcement with Assange Quote first appeared on the satirical news website World News Daily Report Back in 2016. And, as it often happens with fictional plots, he healed a separate life in quite serious media. But the video - supposedly Wikileaks to arrest Assange - received Walking On the network back in March 2019, before the imprisonment of the Australian in custody. Then, in the video, there was no WikiLeaks logo, which later did not save him from removal from YouTube. However, c volume or Other The video version can be found today.

What are these videos? First of all a cut various documentary personnel, namely:

• training of astronauts for weightlessness in the plane;
• preparations for the start of the Apollo-11 crew;
• stage of the lunar module separation from the team "Apollo-11";
• installation of the flag on the moon by the Apollo 14 crew;
• trial trip on the lunar car of the LRV crew "Apollo-16";
• television operation of the installation of the flag by the Apollo-11 crew;
• factory workshops in the production of the Apollo command module;
• training of astronauts in the hydrolaboratory;
• The moment of the start "Apollo 14";
• Animation, which was used during the television broadcast of the Apollo landing at moments of the absence of a direct signal from the ship.

Moreover, all moments from the set and field cinema are borrowed from the 1978 science fiction film "Capricorn-1" and documentary personnel About his filming. This picture also talks about imitation of a manned flight (in this case to Mars), so the frames from it were very suitable for modern conspiracylogs. However, to reality, the resulting video has a very indirect attitude, but it is not related to Wikileaks at all.
