But OT: You just saw the 'most recently added' documentaries. The moonhoax crap.
Try to browse through the rest. There are a lot of real, journalistic documentaries in there.
I guess it's kinda like YouTube. Lots of beautiful things, and a lot of mindless nonsense.
Indeed. It's a place where you can find all sorts of documentaries. Like Bakkels said, it's kinda like youtube, except it hosts docs.

So they have an editing process where they get rid of or at least identify the fake stuff like the moon hoax? Otherwise, like youtube, it's usually not worth my time to wade through all of it.

To play devil's advocate, documentaries don't necessarily have to be about 'reality'. By definition, documentaries simply document something. You can darn well have documentaries about things that aren't actually true.

That said, as with all movies, there's some that are worth your time and some that aren't.
