I personally wouldn't bother with UK vs US spelling conventions. Personally, I find that I use a blend, which has never been an  issue anybody's brought up. And as far as making dialogue gramatically correct, you want it to be as grammatically correct as natural dialogue would be. So yes, add a "the" before Moon Landing. But the other sugestion seems a bit overdone. People don't speak perfect grammar. Which brings me to really my only criticism, which is that the dialogue does seem a bit stiff, even for formalities. I like the ppremise and how it's delivered, so a pretty good story, I say
