For example the three man crew are hauled off the rocket minutes before it's launch and are then coerced into going along with fake the Mars landing after threats are made against their families.

In addition other benefactors of the space program thanks to congress and their ability to appropriate funds provided by the tax payers were the large corporations and their shareholders.The movie itself is entertaining and the only thing wrong are some of the obvious plot holes that leave more questions than answers.
President Kennedy in 1962 predicted that they would send a man to the moon by the end of the decade and thus keep the USA ahead in the space race. Why did they do it? Probably for political purposes too. They say that the USA simply did not have the technology back in the 1960's to have landed on the moon. Yet, conspiracy theorists suggest that the moon landings were staged in a studio. NASA was also a large part of the military budget which ran into millions of dollars which many thought was far too much, particularly that there were more pressing economic and social problems at the time at home.After getting off to a slow start the USA eventually got the better of the USSR and landed men on the moon in 1969. Get to the moon before the soviets to prove who had the best economic and political system as well as creating a feel good factor in the country. Massive government spending was required to keep it going, so what better than a war! Going further, critics say that NASA's Apollo space program which was also known as "the space race" was also politically motivated and just part of the cold war shenanigans.
Were probably ready to believe that the Apollo space program was nothing but a hoax!Many people believe that the Vietnam war was fought primarily to feed the America's huge military industrial complex.
