The riddle leading to 'Fly Me to the Moon': normalization of the moon landing conspiracy?
A puzzle posted on social media combines a cult comic (Ghost World), a Jethro Tull song (Move On Alone) and ends up pointing to a 2024 romantic comedy. The film is Fly Me to the Moon, starring Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum. Its plot: a marketing specialist is hired to fake the moon landing if NASA fails to get real footage. The riddle, once solved, points straight to the heart of the most famous moon landing conspiracy.
The film, set during the preparations for Apollo 11, makes no secret of its premise: if NASA couldn't film the real landing, they would simulate it. An idea that believers in the hoax theory have been repeating for decades. What changes now is that Hollywood turns it into a cliché and makes a romantic comedy out of it. Does that defuse it or normalize it?
The unsettling detail: the puzzle was published shortly before the premiere, as if someone wanted to leave a record that the film was already on the radar of those who know how to read between the lines. With all this, the debate about the staged moon landing resurfaces, but this time with popcorn.
