Reminds me of this joke conspiracy theory in a private online forum:
the Moon (possibly along with all other celestial bodies) is an Eldritch Abomination, scientists around the world have known this at least since the early 20th century and possibly for centuries before, and the Space Race was a coverup story for the USA and USSR attempting to gain the Moon’s favor by Eldritch rituals and durtle human sacrifice.
