Hmm, that's kind of a laundry list. Of those which would you say is the strongest argument?

Sometimes it has to be a collage as no one thing is highly probable, but combined is.

That said, the likeliest issue to overcome is the Van Allen belt.

NASA says they found the thinnest part and the astronauts only spent a little time going through it. However the radiation is intense and the astronauts did not seem to be affected at all.

It is discouraging as an inability to pass through the Van Allen belt means there will be no way to get to Mars except through robotics. Perhaps humans could be incubated there?

Let’s see what SpaceX can do and why not go (back) to the moon before Mars.

a 'laundry list' label

is meant to belittle

but all important events

must be seen in scope

each item supports another

well done

No doubt multiple points can be used to support a hypothesis.

But for the purposes of discussion, I like to deal with one point at a time. It's helpful to avoid getting sidetracked.

So I read a little about the Van Allen belt. https://www.popsci.com/blog-network/vintage-space/apollo-rocketed-through-van-allen-belts/

I did find the claim that the belts are shaped like donuts convincing. A lot of magnetic fields are shaped like that. So it is plausible to me that the radiation is much less dense in places.

Leave it with you to investigate further.

Oh I'm a little disappointed. I was hoping you'd stand up a defence, or if unable to do so, concede the point.

The information is there for you to review. Then you must come to your own conclusion given the evidence.

All the best and happy with whatever your determination is.

This considers many events but primarily the moon landing.
