They faked it, but it was filmed on location I’m told.
Apollo 8: Orbit the moon
Apollo 9: Test lunar module in earth orbit
Apollo 10: Fly over landing site. Systems check for landing.
Apollo 11: Elaborate sound stage hoax, as a prank on Neil Armstrong
Apollo 12: Land man on the moon for the first time four months later but don’t tell anyone it’s the first time
Apollo 13: Shameless ratings grab
Apollo 14: Golf on the moon
Apollo 15: Drive golf cart on the moon
Apollo 16: Country club on the moon
Apollo 17: Kill Space Hitler
The moon landing has been faked hundreds if not thousands of times and only done for real like, six.
Fake. No way would Kubrick include that much dialogue.
They faked the soundstage by conducting a real moon landing.
Only Nolan’s commitment to in-camera effects was greater when he generated a real black hole at the LHC.
Every page says all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. It’s a shining example of Kubrick’s commitment to his craft.
He had a different script printed for every take. Just the way he liked to work
If you account for the 30 retakes/scene Kubrick was known for, the text spans around the planet’s equator twice!
Of course the Wicked Witch of the West would be involved…

What a diverse career, some truly can have it all!
