The radiation “measurements” through the Van Allen belt that were preserved from Apollo 11 are a total joke—blatantly fake.

That is why current astronauts in the Artemis program keep talking about radiation risks—they know.

Wrong.

However, it is true that Apollo, which had a steel skin, is probably a better radiation shield than Artemis will be.

No, they aren't. They exactly correspond to the measurements taken by the satellites that surveyed the Van Allen belts prior to the Mercury and Gemini programs.
