I once saw a website that claimed that the moon was a hologram. I guess it can still be that.

One of the theories was that the Moon was not always a hologram, but that it was destroyed (maybe in WW2?) and now the government keeps a projection of the moon to keep people from finding out.

Also all of the space exploration propaganda was faked. Here's an amazing sentence that will never leave my mind: "Occam's razor says the simplest explanation is most often the correct one. And what's simpler: that the government spent millions of dollars, spent years doing research, with international collaborations on rocket science and astronomy, and then managed to get a manned rocket onto the moon... Or that it is all a conspiracy? ;) "

I've heard a similar theory, but he said that we project the hologram in order to hide what we're actually doing on the lunar surface right now. Unfortunately, they never elaborated past that enticing conspiracy.
