Look it up, you shall be disappointed. They did create an artificial moon! But it is only 2-feet in diameter. It is also not launched into the atmosphere to look like a moon, but rather used in a research facility where they simulate moon-gravity with magnetism.

So they watch dust and tiny rocks roll around on a magnetic sphere.

They hid it behind the real moon so you can’t see it because it’s very secret

It’s our fault for not sharing our first artificial moon

They’re a bit behind schedule. Eh?

Here ya go. https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806219350099.html?spm=a2g0n.productlist.0.0.475bf2addOepwv&browser_id=e912065a95f54d54820c6fdad60e441c&aff_platform=msite&m_page_id=eafdcfdadec18cff618540462dee4937cbaa6a1e7e&pdp_npi=4%40dis!USD!565.55!282.78!!!4031.00!2015.50!%402101fb1217050916524082762eb9c0!12000037049144422!sea!US!0!AB&algo_pvid=a54913a1-3e67-4985-8787-3ddb1c8689c4
