If you watched the video itll explain that the telescope isnt "big" enough to capture enough detail. Its like using a pair of binoculars to see an ant from a mile away. Youll need a massive telescope (bigger than any telescope ever built) to see the lander on the surface on the moon from earth.
don't trust everything on the internet.
They're right on this one. This picture here is pretty illuminating about the sizes of the views that Hubble captures:
Image source with additional reading.
Zooming into an object a couple of meters in size on the surface of the Moon is in a completely different ballpark.
Good advice. But the contents of the video is all verifiable math and physics. Iirc, youd need a 100 meter telescope. Currently The largest one under construction is 30 meters large... if you want to see the landers, you just need to get much closer like the lunar reconnaissance orbiter has.
