The single biggest piece of evidence that Apollo 11 landed on the moon is really simple. The Soviet Union accepted it.
There is a zero percent chance they would be in on that conspiracy. They had every reason in the world to expose that as a lie. But they didn’t, because it happened.
There is no telescope on Earth that has the resolution to visually track the Apollo missions. It’s just a physical impossibility at the distances involved. Only when NASA launched the LRO, there finally was an imaging system that could take pictures of the moon (from a low lunar orbit) of a resolution sufficient to actually see anything that’s left there from the Apollo missions.
Radars and signals intelligence could and be used to keep track of the missions, though.

Yeah, they were tracking that shit with their own radars and telescopes.
