1) We went to the Moon and landed on the surface
2) We went to the Moon and landed on the surface many times (Apollo 8-17)

6) Nothing ever made it through the VABs... all missions (Mars, Jupiter, etc.) have all been faked
7) Only unmanned missions can make it to through the VABs.. all manned missions are faked
8) The Hare Krishnas are right - we can't even leave the Earth and never have - everything is faked (or part of a fantastic delusion)
9) We live in a matrix-like quantum dream state. We can only get to the Moon, manned or unmanned, if enough of us believe we can - but it's all just part of a giant simulation anyway.
10) The Moon is a place where our souls are recycled (through the Shard) and back to Earth (parallel to the Tibetan Book of the Dead)

17) The Moon has on it evidence of us operating on it - we've come back from the future
18) The Moon is a staging area for an advanced alien race that visits every once in a while on their travels
19) The Moon is a staging area for advanced alien race(s) that observe us
20) The Moon is a staging area for advanced alien race that visits every once in a while to mine the Earth
21) The Moon was visited by the Nazis
22) The Moon has a base shared by the Americans and the Russians
23) The Moon has autonomous, artificially intelligent machines
24) The Moon has no atmosphere
25) The Moon has a breathable atmosphere (that humans can breath)
26) The Moon was visited by secret NASA missions (Apollo 20 and such)
27) The Moon was visited by secret NASA missions and one of those missions awakened an ancient woman (millions of years old) out of cryogenic sleep who died on the way back to Earth (Apollo 20ish)
28) The Moon was carried here by the "Destroyer" - a dwarf sun that was knocked out of it's location and floated through our solar system
29) The Moon is the HQ for our keepers the Grays
30) The Moon is part of a gravity wave that aliens use to travel between planets
31) The Moon holds key information to what happened on Mars
32) The Moon was a staging area for the Martians that eventually altered our DNA enough to be more like them before they all perished
33) There is an active alien base on the far side of the Moon
34) There is an active alien base on the far side of the Moon that humans are allowed to visit (only getting there inside their UFOs)
35) There are human slave camps on the Moon, run by aliens (many of the missing persons on Earth are there)
36) The Moon was the original Garden of Eden - the place where the genetic tests were completed before seeding the Earth
37) There is non-frozen water on the Moon inside craters (i.e. crater lakes)
38) There are areas of the Moon where organic (plants) grow
39) The Moon has a race of entities that resemble termites
40) The Moon was a battlefield - most of the craters were formed by large explosions
41) The Moon has more gravity than every science professor will admit (because the math is wrong)
42) The Moon has more gravity than every science professor will admit (because they all work for "the man")
43) The Apollo missions stopped going to the Moon because we were told not to come back (turning Apollo missions into Space Lab - stay close to Earth)
44) We went to the Moon for all the wrong reasons (i.e. flag waving politics) and so we are not invited back until we "grow up"
45) The Moon was manufactured, along with Earth to provide stability so that humans can be "grown"
46) The Moon is one big dead rock.
