Apollo 8 Santa Conspiracy!

51 years ago, 1968, Apollo 8 astronauts Frank Borman, James Lovell and William Anders became the:
FIRST astronauts to leave low Earth orbit,
FIRST astronauts to orbit the Moon,
FIRST humans to see (and photograph) an Earthrise.

They entered the Moon's orbit at 09:59 on Christmas Eve and left at 06:10 on Christmas Day!

This means that they MUST have seen Santa orbiting the Earth! But Santa is not in the famous Earthrise photo, which can only mean he must have been airbrushed out as part of a fiendish conspiracy theory!

Is this what the original photograph looked like?


Don't worry, nowadays you can track Santa on NORAD's official tracker.
