Top 10 Space Conspiracy Theories.
- The Moon Landing Was Faked
- Probably the most famous one. Some believe NASA staged the 1969 Apollo 11 moon landing in a studio, citing waving flags, no stars in the sky, and odd shadows as “proof.” Deep Dive [Link]
- The Earth Is Flat (and Space Is Fake)
- Flat Earthers claim space travel is an illusion and that space agencies are part of a global cover-up. They argue satellites don’t exist, and the stars are just lights in the firmament.
- Secret Moon Bases
- Some theorists suggest the Moon houses secret alien or human bases—either abandoned or currently active—and that NASA knows but keeps quiet.
- The Black Knight Satellite
- A supposed alien satellite orbiting Earth for 13,000 years, spotted by NASA and dismissed as space debris. Conspiracy lovers say it’s an ancient alien monitoring device.
- Aliens Helped Build the Pyramids… from Space
- While not strictly a space conspiracy, this blends ancient astronaut theories with cosmic intervention—suggesting alien technology (or beings) came from the stars to aid early civilizations.
- NASA Knows About Alien Life and Hides It
- Some believe NASA has discovered extraterrestrial life (either microbial or intelligent) but keeps it secret to avoid mass panic or political upheaval.
- The Secret Space Program
- This theory claims that there are advanced human space missions, using reverse-engineered alien tech, run by secret branches of governments or even private shadow organizations.
- Apollo 20 Mission to an Alien City on the Moon
- Allegedly a secret joint U.S.-Soviet mission in the ’70s, Apollo 20 supposedly found a crashed alien spaceship and a humanoid alien named “Mona Lisa.”
- Mars Has Already Been Colonized
- A fringe belief suggests humans have already traveled to Mars, with secret bases established as part of a covert military or corporate project—sometimes tied to Elon Musk or the U.S. military.
- Nibiru / Planet X Is Hiding in the Solar System
- This apocalyptic theory claims a rogue planet, Nibiru, is on a collision course with Earth or exerts mysterious gravitational influence, hidden by NASA and governments.
