I still have a FB account since it’s the only contact I have these days with a lot of my highschool friends. I logged in earlier today and saw this “NASA is a hoax” garbage in my “suggested” feed.

There’s nothing in my history to suggest I have any interest in conspiracy theories. My friends are probably right-leaning on average (I’m from a small town in the south - so it goes), but I clicked and none of them are in that group. So I’m sort of assuming this is promoted. Joy.

    I should be sleeping, instead I’m reverse image searching and found this on a related pic

    The six-member Expedition 61 crew is gathered for a meal iss061e112462 (Dec. 31, 2019) — The six-member Expedition 61 crew is gathered together inside the Zvezda service module for a New Year’s Eve meal

    Think if it was a hoax, you’d spend a lil more on your PR team to spread it around with a catchier story.
