When people say that they tracked Apollo when it went to the moon it always gives a laugh. Several ways exist to show how it is possible to fake the signal and impossible to track the craft. My favorite was to point out the signal was faked was with Carl Sagan and his movie Contact:
Now lets cover the claim that it would be "impossible"... Now this is the most common argument taken for the defense that it would be impossible to fake a signal from the moon or another celestial body:

Now their claim here is that you need a dish, or a plane or a low earth orbit satellite in order to fake this signal. So this claim is easily debunked by showing that it can be faked by any satellite that is not in low earth orbit. There are several orbits most people know about, these orbits are close to earth and these are what the people making this claim are referencing.

However these are not the orbits that you would use to fake the signal. So their entire argument is a straw man. There are three places that satellites could be placed or sent for the duration of the needed signal. A few weeks would be very easy. NASA has sent dozens of satellites to areas of space that would allow the distance to cover the entire face of the earth with the signal, making each place thousands of miles apart capable of receiving the signal.

Not only could any of these places they sent these satellites send the signal but Apollo could have been in low earth orbit and only the men on the craft would know where the craft actually was. Bouncing it off them to the satellite in deep space and then back to earth to those thinking they are tracking Apollo alone. But a few operators would be required.
Then there is deeper places in space to put these satellites that would allow these signals to be faked. All of these places allow anything in low earth orbit to send a signal to them and back to earth with no one knowing the original source once sent from the deep space satellite.



Over and over they show examples of how they can be in further regions of space and send signals that can be picked up from anywhere on earth at anytime.
Now lets take a look at another way they can fake the signal:

NASA is very clear that they are able to send things to and around the moon and then bounce a laser off it and back to earth. They are clear that they can bounce a laser off the moon without a mirror with this tool here. All of that is just more of them explaining how they have always had the ability to bounce signals off the moon. So they could have just shot the radio signal towards the moon and it would come back to anyone listening. Claiming Apollo sent the signal is all they would have to do, as long as the soldiers lied about where they went to assure we beat Russia in the war to inhabit space.

So its a straw man argument. Not proof and easily proven faked. Just like them saying they put a mirror on the moon to bounce a laser is nonsense as you can bounce a laser off the moon without a mirror. Their proof is not proof and is easily disproven.
