That’s the first draft script of 2001, as written by an old-fashioned AI ‘expert system.’
Kubrik decided it was more cost-effective to just have HAL sing ‘Daisy, Daisy.’
I don’t want to be that guy… however:

Kubrick did actually film a fake version of the moon landing, but he was such a perfectionist that he made them film it on location … thus making the fake moon landing real
See, it was a hoax. There’s the script for the fake landing footage
If Kubrick had filmed a fake moon landing the conspiracy wouldn’t exist. The nimrods that believe that shit couldn’t begin to fathom how much of an insane perfectionist he was, he’d have created his own moon
I like your way of thinking here. I’m honestly not sure if the actual geologists working on lunar soil simulants today are more hardcore than Kubrick was back then.
With all the cuts to NASA and the American scientific enterprise generally, we could use this kind of angel perfectionist director these days. I wonder if Denis Villeneuve could be convinced to forget about Arrakis for a while and work closer to home…
How is that going to help with the NASA budget?
It won’t, certainly not directly. It would help individual scientists if they can land funding from non-governmental sources, though.
Looks like someone printed one JavaScript file from any modern website
Remember when Elon Musk bought Twitter and he asked for all the code to be printed out so he could ‘assess’ it? Lol. Good times.
