Talked to my brother about the moon landing and he brought up a point I'd never considered

We were having a beer and he said, 'The thing that gets me is the lack of stars in the photos, but a photographer friend told me that's just how film works with bright subjects.' That simple fact check from a normal expert, not some online rant, really made me pause. How often do we get hung up on details that have a boring, real-world explanation?

Still seems like a pretty big detail to get wrong though.

Honestly, that's the best kind of fact check. It's not some big argument, just someone with actual camera knowledge giving a simple answer. Tbh, we get so used to loud online theories that a quiet, normal explanation feels weird. Makes you wonder how many other "mysteries" are just us not knowing how regular stuff works.
