Erm.

He is rambling obviously.

I don't think he is saying we didn't go to the moon. To me it sounds like he is answering the question by stating that they (astronauts) didn't ask that same question when they had the chance.

So Joe Biden and Buzz Aldrin walk into a bar... "what we come in here for again?"

So if its as simple as seeing the landing site and items left behind through a telescope, whats the issue?

No ground based telescope is strong enough to see it. The Hubble is not even powerful enough to see that detail. The LRO however has somewhat clear images of the Apollo landing sites, taken in 2009.

But CoosawJack couldn't see it with his handheld camera so... fake

Hubble is a deep field telescope, basically far sighted, especially with the modifications we had to put in the optics (think glasses) because they ground the main mirror wrong. Sites on earth or the moon are just too close, it simply can't focus. Like using a telescope when a magnifying glass works much better.

And more than likely the flags are probably white, as solar radiation has bleached them. So it probably looks like the French landed there. But the equipment that was painted probably still shows old glory.

Yea, I know close objects are not Hubble's intent but it can and has taken photos of the moon and even still the pixel density is not strong enough to see detail less than 30feet across. My only point is that Jack's camera is not going to see anything. It wouldn't even see an entire city.
