You are writing historical fiction, but that's okay. What does TL;DR mean?
No I'm writing a conspiracy theory that is totally based on the facts;

No. You are writing historical fiction. You are plucking documented encounters between historical figures out of a chronological timeline and imagining what they might have said and done. Historical fiction is a perfectly legitimate literary form. Robert Graves was a master of it.
No I don't pluck stuff out of a timeline. I take documented encounters and I replace them, re-fitting them back into the official timeline where they officially belong.

You said it, not I.

Why didn't they rename it the Richard M. Nixon Space Center?
Keep-out zones
Beth O’Leary, an anthropology professor at New Mexico State University said that the NASA guidelines create a series of keep-out zones and boundaries around the historic artifacts and features at all Apollo sites. Apollo 11 and Apollo 17 are acknowledged as having special historical and cultural significance, she said. Source lunarscience.nasa.gov...
Nixon had his (fake) facsimile signature engraved on the first and the last lunar plaques. His name is forever etched into the narrative of Apollo! Coincidentally, the Apollo 11 (first) and Apollo 17 (the last) are the two most culturally significant sites mentioned in NASA's Keep Out Zone.

Why would he content himself with that if it were all fake?
