Since millions of people have seen space shuttles and other rockets launch, where do they end up after the launch? You'd think with all the rockets that we've sent into the sky, there would be garbage everywhere and it would be easy enough to come across. Not to mention how are we able to recover a space shuttle after a mission if it wasn't in space the whole time? How could NASA simulate a reentry that's visible to millions of people and then make a shuttle magically appear in the sky over Edwards/KSC flying over the speed of sound, eventually landing?
Also, what would explain a normal person's ability to see satellites moving in the sky around sunrise/sunset if they're not actually there?
