number of people who believe the original moon landing was faked?

 

It depends on the country and the specific poll, but the consistent pattern is: a small minority of people believe the Moon landing was faked.

 

United States

Most modern surveys find about 5%โ€“10% of Americans say the Moon landing was faked.

For example:

A 1999 Gallup poll: ~6% doubted it happened

A 2019 Ipsos poll: ~6% overall, but ~11% among millennials

Other countries (varies widely)

UK: ~25% in one survey

Russia: ~28% (and even higher in some polls)

Big picture

In most developed countries, belief tends to fall roughly in the single digits to low double digits (%).

At the high end (depending on region and survey), it can reach ~20โ€“30% or more.

Bottom line

The overwhelming majority of people accept that the Moon landing happened.

But millions of people worldwide still believe it was faked, depending on how you count.

any demographic notables?

 

Yesโ€”research and polls show some clear demographic patterns among people who doubt the Moon landing:

 

  1. Age

Younger adults (millennials and Gen Z) tend to show slightly higher skepticism than older generations.

Example: In the 2019 Ipsos poll in the U.S., ~11% of millennials doubted the Moon landing vs. ~6% overall.

Possible reasons: exposure to online conspiracy communities, social media misinformation.

  1. Education

Lower levels of formal education correlate with higher likelihood of doubt.

People with college or advanced degrees are overwhelmingly more likely to accept that the Moon landing happened.

  1. Political / Ideological Leaning

In the U.S., thereโ€™s a weak correlation with anti-establishment or conspiracy-prone attitudes, rather than strict party affiliation.

People who generally distrust government institutions or mainstream media are more likely to believe in Moon landing hoax theories.

  1. Geography

Skepticism is higher outside the U.S. in some countries:

Russia: polls have shown ~28% or more doubt it happened.

UK: up to ~25% in certain surveys

Cultural factors, education, and historical trust in government/science play a role.

  1. Media Exposure

Those who frequently consume conspiracy-heavy content online or on social media are much more likely to endorse the idea.

 

Bottom line: Doubt tends to cluster among younger, less formally educated, anti-establishment-minded individuals, often amplified by certain media channels.

 

Russia, UK: states with the highest level of gov't fvckery. Commies and Freemasons (cousins). The original homes of psyop propaganda.
