Saw this making the rounds today
It is a “deepfake” video of an alternative history where Apollo 11 crashed.
NBC news article on the tech behind it

I’m excited for the potential good these deep fakes can do in the porn industry but they really are scary stuff.

that's the actual speech in case that happened

The words are
But Nixon never gave that speech

I’m not sure I even want to watch this. I could not imagine an alternate history where the US moon landing does not happen.
It’s one of the cornerstones of American exceptionalism and one of our crowning achievements as a nation and a species.

The future is terrifying

In this alternative history the landing actually happened but the astronauts died there. In our current timeline we never landed but didn’t die.

Porn is a plague and cancer on our society and we should cut it out.
It’s not healthy and it’s not good.

I've read all of that contingency stuff. You can find it in the NASA online archives. The part that always stuck with me is that if they were lost on the moon or in space for any reason, Mission Control could brick the spacecraft's radios so the astronauts couldn't transmit panicked cries for help, condemnations, etc., that could be picked up by people on Earth.
They'd tell the astronauts that nothing could be done for them, get the families in for last goodbyes, then turn the radios off, have the chaplains essentially give them a burial at sea, and that was it. Michael Collins was trained to come home alone if that happened.
I'd imagine the stranded astronauts would just open the vents on the spacecraft and drift off due to hypoxia as their air bled out into space. It would be a fairly quick and painless way to go.

It’s not fake and it’s not alternate history. It’s real footage of a real announcement prepared by Nixon’s real speechwriters, read by real Nixon, in case the 2 Apollo 11 LM crew got stuck on the moon. CM pilot Michael Collins would have flown back to Earth alone.
Really.
Really.

Eisenhower wrote a communique taking full responsibility for the failure of the Normandy landings.

yoga girl wanted me to tell y’all that they’re working to perfect these deep fakes as quickly as they can so when the Hillary eating human flesh video comes out, she’ll have plausible deniability

There were a number of ordinary individuals not associated with NASA that were intercepting Apollo transmissions directly from the moon with home built equipment, one was a engineer my dad knew. Just another facet of the event that the “fake landing “ crowd have overlooked.

Nah, they'll just say that we sent a radio relay to the moon, but not people.
Those moonbats always have an answer.

we want an alternate history?
Apollo 13's issues crop up AFTER Lovell & Haise walk on the moon so the lunar module has already been jettisoned and can't be used as a lifeboat to get back to Earth
crew loses oxygen, doesn't have power to make course corrections to get back to Earth, etc
