Stages Memes

Conspiracy theorists: "The moon landing was staged!" Engineers who designed multi-stage rockets: "Yes, that's literally how orbital mechanics works. We stage the rockets to shed mass and increase efficiency. It's basic Tsiolkovsky rocket equation stuff. Did you think we'd just... point a single tube at the moon and hope for the best?"

When conspiracy theorists claim the moon landing was staged, they forget one tiny detail - ROCKET SCIENCE IS REAL! This meme brilliantly shuts down moon landing deniers by showing the Saturn V rocket stages, which is literally how rockets work - they separate in stages to escape Earth's gravity. The sarcastic response is perfect because it uses the conspiracy theorist's own skepticism against them. Next time someone tells you NASA faked everything in a Hollywood basement, just point to the laws of physics that got us there!
