NASA Acting Administrator Sean Duffy publicly responded to Kim Kardashian’s claim that the 1969 Moon landing was faked.

Question

In a recent episode of her TV series, the reality star said she believed the moon landing was fake.

This claim checks out. I went directly to Sean Duffy’s social media account to confirm he made the statement — and that he’s actually NASA’s acting administrator. I also watched the clip from The Kardashians where Kim Kardashian tells Sarah Paulson she doesn’t believe the Moon landing happened. To be thorough, I cross-checked with other reputable news outlets that covered the story and cited Duffy’s response. All sources aligned.

Answer 1

This all appears to be accurate. This Access Hollywood video shows a clip from The Kardashians, where Kim reads to actress Sarah Paulson from a purported Buzz Aldrin quote saying that "the moon landing would have been scary if it were real". Sean Duffy, NASA's acting administrator, responded on social media emphasizing that humans have landed on the moon 6 times. Other outlets like the BBC, the Guardian, and the NYT have also reported on this. The NYT goes on to say: 

"For the record: Mr. Aldrin has never denied the 1969 moon landing by the Apollo 11 spacecraft. One of the most famous photographs of the last century shows Mr. Aldrin on the moon, a shot snapped by Mr. Armstrong."
