You know, what I find scary is, apart from the lunacy of covering up a Moon launch it looks like, from a hardware standpoint, the production crew did a damn good job. The LM (even the Soviet one), the pressure suits, gear...all look pretty good in that trailer.

They must've had help from the film crew that faked the original moon landing! :lol:

One obvious mistake. The inside of the LEM had way too much room. It was done for the convenience of the actors, but that was way more space than the real LEM actually had.
