How do we know we landed on the moon? Well, because it happened and there's loads of evidence.

On this episode, Ed and Dhara tackle some of the major conspiracies about the moon landing head on and ask what the future holds for conspiracy theories as we approach the Artemis landings.

We also celebrate the life of Apollo astronaut Jim Lovell.
