There's a chance we launched objects into space and successfully landed them on the moon. However, it's improbable that any of those objects involved a human being.

The issue of radiation remains a significant challenge. It's puzzling that, 55 years later, we're still labeling it a problem when a solution was achieved over half a century ago.

Perhaps my skepticism would lessen if the government hadn't been repeatedly caught in falsehoods. Considering the intense drive to win the space race, the motivation to deceive was exceptionally strong. With a limited number of people involved, the national reputation at stake, and potential lifelong benefits in terms of money and fame, maintaining the deception seemed more appealing. Logically, it appears there's a significant likelihood that this was a hoax.

The issue isn’t getting astronauts safely through the van allen belt. It’s not uniform thickness and objects traveling fast enough don’t receive even close to a lethal dose. The primary concern is the digital computer system which is far more sensitive than the old analog systems.

It’s been 50 years since the moon landings and almost all the institutional and experiential knowledge is gone. Sure NASA knows how it was done, but there was a ton of skill, experience, and good luck as well.

The primary radiation concern going forward will be long term exposure to solar radiation outside the safety of the earth’s magnetic field. Any moon bases and trips to Mars will have to solve long term radiation exposure. The Apollo missions weren’t outside the field long enough for it to be an issue.
