I'm only surprised they haven't faked them too by now, but maybe the will of the present generation working for NASA isn't up to promoting the lie any longer.
Okay........ a camera that is perhaps 100 miles above the surface of Mars can photograph a rover through that planet's tenuous atmosphere. So you expect Earth-based cameras to be able to photograph objects that are in reality not that much larger, from an average of 233,818 miles? That would require optics on Earth to be almost 2,500 times better than those NASA sent to Mars, not to mention better than the physics allow. The fact is that no telescope on Earth (or in orbit around Earth) is able to resolve an object the size of the LEM at that distance. Do the math.

Do you admit we've send unmanned missions to orbit and land on Mars, or is that also faked?
