Dark Side of the Moon is more interesting, because it seems to basically tell the truth about Kubrick being involved, yet... its called a mockumentary. I wonder where are the lies?
"....where are the lies?" For most of this thread, coming in YOUR posts.
Oh, you meant in that mockumentary....FoosM the PROOF is everywhere.
We haven't been silenced. We're right here. Jarrah is either a hoax, or he's just plain incompetent. He's certainly a fraud as an "expert".

A "mockumentary" is false. By definition. You yourself said it was a mockumentary, and I have no doubt you'll try and move the goalposts or avoid addressing the fact.

It is finally revealed that this is a mockumentary as the end credits roll over a montage of blooper reels, with the main participants laughing over the absurdity of their lines or questioning if particular ones would give the joke away too soon.
Besides being a comedic documentary, it is also an exercise in Jean Baudrillard's theories of hyperreality. In a 2004 interview, the director was asked why he would elect to make a film "closer to a comedy than a serious film"; Karel replied that in the wake of having made serious documentaries, the objective was "de faire un film drôle" (to make a funny film).
Australian broadcaster SBS television aired the film on April 1 as an April fools' joke, and again on 17 November 2008 as part of Kubrick week. It was aired again on 27 July 2009, perhaps to coincide with the anniversary of the moon landing.
Several of the fictitious interviewees, such as Dave Bowman, Jack Torrance, and Dimitri Muffley are named after characters from movies directed by Kubrick. There are also references to films by Alfred Hitchcock, as both Eve Kendall and George Kaplan are character names in North by Northwest, and Ambrose Chapel is a location in the 1956 remake of The Man Who Knew Too Much.

So then why are you concerned about the Spy Satellite example which only was an answer to your question of satellites not taking 70mm photography, than to my previous post showing that the USSR and US were taking high definition photos of the Earth prior to Apollo 8?
How do you know that? I just said many images from satellites at that time are still classified.
You have no idea what they did back in the 60's and 70's during the Cold War.
And even if they weren't capable of doing that.
Have you considered that full Earth photos could also have been stitched together from low flying satellites?
Their main point is that because satellite images matches Apollo images that proves Apollo happened.
Are you saying that because two sets of images of Earth matches each other means that we sent men to the moon?
It was impossible to outfit a satellite with a 70mm camera and sent it do a high enough orbit to take photos? But of course, why do that when you had, for example, ATS weather satellites!

As-it-happened real actual footage from CBS news with Walter Cronkite reporting on the historic Apollo 11 moon landing in July, 1969. President Nixon speaks to the crew via phone.

and pay special attention at about 1:00 in this video down in the bottom left there are some dudes making some interesting hand signals
Notice that ABC is using TV trickery to create this historical event. This ABC network broadcast INEXPLICABLY converts to a negative image at about 6:30. Hmmmmm. At about 7:20 in the video the negative image reverts back to regular image and there seems to be an actual editing splice at 7:29 in this video just before the NASA PAO says "That's the sample return containers..."

Pure propaganda
yes it was , and ??
the nixon / oval office radio link had no scientific merit , or mission value
it was pure propaganda - no one has ever denied that
but it was an act of propaganda that happened , exactly as the archive material shows it
you may wish to actually look up and understand what propaganda is - because you seem confused
propaganda can be , and often is true - its the way it is presented and the importance ascribed to it that defins it as propaganda
