Was the First Moon landing faked

For years, there has been speculation that the Apollo 11 moon mission was an elaborate hoax perpetrated by the government to make the Russians believe they were the first to land on the moon. I don't believe that they faked it and that they absolutely achieved their mission.

Conspiracists have tried to point out discrepancies as to why the flag was waving in the vacuum of the moon and lighting, why no stars were visible and where was the camera when Armstrong descended from the Lunar Module.

What are your thoughts?
