During the Space Race, the United States was primarily competing against the Soviet Union. This competition began in the late 1950s and continued through the 1970s, marked by significant milestones such as the Soviet launch of Sputnik in 1957 and the U.S. Apollo moon landing in 1969. The rivalry was not only about technological advancements but also represented broader ideological conflicts between capitalism and communism.
The first manned lunar landing was in July of 1969.
There was no moon landing in 1994, the final moon landing occurred in December, 1972.
The moon landing was a project led by the United States during the Space Race of the 1960s and 1970s. The two astronauts who landed on the moon were American, and the rocket that took them there was launched by NASA, the U.S. space agency. No other nations were directly involved in the moon landing itself.
Landing on the moon is different from landing on Earth mainly because the moon has lower gravity, no atmosphere, and a different surface composition. These factors require specialized technology and different landing procedures to safely land on the moon compared to landing on Earth. Additionally, the lack of atmosphere on the moon means there is no air resistance to help slow down spacecraft during descent, which further complicates the landing process.

The moon landing was never faked at all.

America and Russia were engaged in a 'space race' to prove who had superior technology. America had the first manned moon landing, but there hasn't been any reason to go back.
The Apollo 11 moon flight and moon landing was never ever faked.
The first landing by man on the moon, was made at the Tranquility Base.
The first landing was July 20, 1969. There was another landing that same year and 4 more landings over the years 1970-1972.
