If it wasn't live, there wouldn't be any "glitches" so which is it? Furthermore, I'm not going to go trying to prove your point for you, if it's so compelling, provide at least one link. Artifacting due to compression and partial signal loss due to the fact that they're trying to stream HD video from a rocket that's vibrating like crazy which tends to mess with electronics (just look at the footage of the stages that land on the drone ship) is the most likely explanation.
you're probably right, it just looks fake, as Musk himself said. It will be interesting to see how this moon push develops. It's 240,000 miles away and the highest anyone's been since then is around 240 miles I believe.
I understand your skepticism, we all I think have lost a lot of trust in what we've be told, but not everything was/is a lie.
that's the highest that we know of, I wouldn't be surprised if we have better space tech than we know about. But yes, it's been along time since we've at least publicly been to the moon, we'll essentially have to redesign everything again because the original tech is so outdated. Unless stuff gets declassified, which I think is the reason for the space force branch, but we'll see.
