NASA Shuts Down Kim Kardashian's Moon Landing Doubts
31 Oct
Summary
- NASA assures Kardashian the 1969 moon landing did happen
- Kardashian expresses doubts about the historic event
- NASA touts future Artemis moon missions under Biden administration
On October 31, 2025, NASA Acting Administrator Sean Duffy took to social media to address billionaire Kim Kardashian's doubts about the 1969 moon landing. In a recent episode of the reality series "The Kardashians," the 45-year-old had expressed skepticism about the historic event, citing comments made by astronaut Buzz Aldrin.
Duffy firmly assured Kardashian that the moon landing did, in fact, occur, stating that NASA had sent astronauts to the lunar surface six times. He also highlighted the agency's upcoming Artemis missions, which will return humans to the moon under the leadership of President Biden.
Kardashian's doubts stemmed from a conversation with her co-star Sarah Paulson, where she read a note from a fan questioning Aldrin's comments about the mission's lack of "scary moments." The 95-year-old astronaut's remarks had led Kardashian to believe the entire event was fabricated.
However, NASA remains steadfast in its commitment to the historical significance of the Apollo 11 mission, which saw Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin become the first people to walk on the moon on July 20, 1969. Duffy's response underscores the agency's efforts to educate the public and dispel any lingering doubts about this landmark achievement in human spaceflight.
