Instead of going on the fallacious assumption, that, since it's in a history book that back on '69 men landed on the Moon, that therefore it must be true, they question, as I am.

Testimony of the participants.
Dozens of hours of film/TV footage.
32,000+ photographs.
870 pounds of differentiated moon rock (examined by geologists across the globe, including Soviets who had their own very small samples from sample return missions).
Telemetry from experiments, analysed by scientists across the globe.
Telemetry from the spacecraft at tracking stations manned by nationals including here in Australia (i.e. not NASA employees)
LRRR's still used to this day to measure Earth/Moon distance.
Recordings from ham operators across the globe of transmissions, in real time, for hours on end.
Hundreds of thousands of spectators saw the launch of each Apollo mission in person.
Hundreds of thousands would have witnessed each S-IVB burn to place the spacecraft into the TLC.
I could continue, but this is probably enough to be going on with.
