Some People Have Noticed That First Steps On The Moon Don’t Match Neil Armstrong’s Boots

As of recently, a new Moon landing conspiracy theory has been surfacing on the internet

They found that Armstrong and the other crew members did wear the Apollo/Skylab A7L suit pictured above

The overshoes provided extra protection from rips, tears, and dust to the basic spacesuits

This X-ray was taken as a last minute check to see if there were any foreign objects that could compromise the integrity of the spacesuit during the mission

And if you’re still skeptical, go to the Moon for a closer look

But why the overshoes aren’t at the museum like the rest of Armstrong’s gear?

The boots left distinctive footprints that can be seen in numerous other images from the mission

But they had more gear. Namely, overshoes with treaded soles

And for the record, the footprint in the other photograph isn’t even Armstrong’s, it belongs to Buzz Aldrin

“The first footprints on the Moon will be there for a million years. There is no wind to blow them away”

But some people weren’t convinced by it and decided to check the facts

The crew left behind about 100 items on the Moon as a weight saving measure. The list includes not only TV lenses and bodily fluids, but the infamous shoes as well
