This happened way back on July 21st 1969 Australian time, July 20th in the U.S. I watched it unfold on TV.
In Australia we are a day ahead of the United States.
It was Australia who beemed the Television pictures from the Parks Radio Telescope in central NSW recieved from the Moon and then beamed around the world on the Telstar Satellite (launched in 1962) and the Australian WRESAT satellite launched in 1967.
Australia had a thriving space industry back then in South Australia.
What amazes me and so many others, is why would they fake the Moon missions 9 times between 1968 and 1972? Once maybe, but all 9 of them are hoaxes?
It just does not make sense to go to SO much trouble making so many hoaxes. Why would they go to the trouble of getting 12 men to pretend they landed on the Moon?
However one thing is for certain, all along Prabhupada was right, they NEVER went to the heavenly realm on the Moon called Chandraloka.
But it seems more and more likely, as time goes on, they obviously DID go somewhere, maybe to at least the "gross" aspect of the Moon that we all see in the sky from Earth.
It seems more obvious now 50 years later, that the nine Apollo missions may have gone to the "gross" Moon between December 1968 and December 1972, and that twelve astronauts may have walked on that "gross" Moon's surface.
It is becoming almost impossible now to prove to the whole world it was all one big hoax with the photos Japanese spacecrafts have taken on the Moon in 2015 of the Apollo landing sites.
It also makes sense that by now, at least one of the 450,000 people who worked on the NASA Apollo missions, would of come forward with solid proof it was a hoax.
Only the many Youtube conspiracy theorists, that no one intelligent takes seriously, have came forward with often ridiculous theories that uneducated and naive people believe.
However, Prabhupada WAS right in the most important way, and that is they NEVER went to the heavenly "subtle" material atmosphere on the Moon called Chandraloka.
No, they did not go there, and can NEVER go to Chandraloka in a gross material body and mundane space vehicals Prabhupada has explained.
BUT it seems more obvious, as time goes on, the Astronauts DID go somewhere, maybe to the "gross" Moon we see from Earth.
Because even though we do NOT see the heavenly "subtle" realm of Chandraloka in these gross material bodily vessels, we DO see the "gross" reality of the Moon in the sky.
The only problem with believing man went to the Moon or today is sending many space probes there, is Srila Prabhupada's purport in the 8th Canto of Srimad Bhagavatam.
Srila Prabhupada states there, that the moon is a very far away from earth, therefore it is NOT possible to reach the moon in three days that present day rocket ships from Japan, India, China, Eurpean Union are all "claiming" they are doing by reaching the Moon in 3 days!
How do do we understand this?
Sadaputa dasa, ISKCON's Vedic Scientist explained the answer to this in his Book Vedic Cosmology.
In some lectures and morning walks, Srila Prabhupada also was not sure if they went to the Moon or not.
Of course in many lectures and classes, he was adament they NEVER went any part of the Moon!
However, in other places, he was not really sure where they went, maybe Rahu he suggested or some other planet as this conversation reveals -
Gaṇeśa: "They actually have never got to the moon, Prabhupada".
Prabhupāda: "Eh?"
Amogha: "He says did they actually get to the moon or not?"
Prabhupāda: "That I am doubtful. Always. They have... ''They might have gone''... Mostly, most probably they have not gone. Simply propaganda. But even they have gone, not to the moon. Maybe the Rahu planet. Or there are so many other planets". (Conversation Perth Australia May 1975)
