It is impossible to fake something has thousands of people that are "in on it" and even today thousands of scientists (and maybe everybody with a slightly better telescope/laser? Unsure) would somehow need to be part of it because you can just use a telescope to see the stuff that was left behind and the laser reflectors are being used today. There's absolutely no chance it's not real.
That's quite a dangerous way to judge if something is true or not. Basically saying that if most people go along with it then it's true. That it not always the case..
