NO, you have no flipping clue, obviously. About anything involving Apollo, and the science of the space craft, their design and operation...none of it, do you understand.
ALL you have is some incredibly ignorant and wrong-headed "beliefs" that are not related in any way to reality.
This is a bit like trying to describe and explain a Boeing 747 to a person living in the 15th century.....a person from that era, woefully ignorant of technological possibility, would not be able to comprehend an airplane, jet engine, flight, etc.....
Unless, you also think that jet airliners are a "hoax" too??

You are talking about the landing in the sea water after the near earth orbit. I don't know how you can compare that with the moon landing. You can have much much more drama than you can think of in that long journey.

Get a library card, go borrow some books, and take time to read. There is a wealth of information to be found that way, much more than just on the Internetz.......
Never stop asking questions. Do not take anything as "facts" without your own critical thinking.

You apparently didn't understand the analogy.
And, no.....you obviously haven't done any studying of actual information regarding the Space Program....you have to understand it, in its entirety......all the building blocks, step-by-step throughout all the Program....even before Mercury, but in earnest as Mercury and then Gemini were undertaken, followed by Apollo.
If you have the inability to comprehend the science, then it is merely from a lack of education, in the specific areas of expertise involved.
Ignorance can be beaten back, and removed, by education. Experience too.....though, that will take much more effort, and will depend on a person's opportunity. Go learn to fly, for example. Just that sort of activity will broaden your horizons, and deepen your understand of mechanical things, in involving aviation (and to a lesser degree, aerospace).

I think Armstrong should better do a favor for humanity by writing a book on his journey to the moon if he really went to the moon. So that these lingering questions can be over once and for all. If he did, all he can say when asked for interview would be "just read my book" and shrug off.
Why doesn't he write a book about his epoch moon landing? What would it take to make him write one?

There are literally thousands and thousands and thousands of separate data points and evidence of just the Apollo program, and ALL of it is completely consistent. Hundreds and hundreds of hours of film footage, thousands of photographs, and the combined knowledge, experience and recollections of the nearly 500,000 people that were involved......
The main point here is did humans actually landed on the moon.

Again, he doesn't want the mission to be about him, he wants it to be about the accomplishment. Even his authorized biography avoids discussion of his personal crises for exactly that reason. You don't get it.

And yet you still have not been able to provide one reason that makes you think it didn't!

I ask why and what is your answer?
I'm not particularly here to prove human moon landing did not occur. I question valid point to give you the chance to answer. I ask why and wonder as ordinary human beings would. If you don't have a clear answer, the main subject of human moon landing becomes in question.
But then his book title could be "How the human moon landing did not happen". And this could be his real story that he wants to tell but obviously can't. What a big betrayal that he could do for his country. But then how about his deep conscience? You see a picture of a deeply torn down man. And that's what he looks like in every public interview. You can't hide the eyes of the deeply soul piercing power of a human being.

I would like to suggest the same to you. Try to be critical and open mined. Never stop asking questions. Do not take anything as "facts" without your own critical thinking. As soon as you stop asking the question of "why", you stop being a sovereign human being.
