Usa Flag



Usa Flag
How did the USA flag fly on the moon?

And also who got the video of him on the moon? becuase they would of been on there first. Or is it all fake?

The flag didn’t ‘fly’ like a flag on Earth. It was held up with a bar that went from the pole across the top. Without that, the flag would just have collapsed and drooped down over the pole and wouldn’t have looked any good.

Also, the first video of Neil Armstrong getting out onto the Moon’s surface was taken from a camera on board the lander. The video itself makes that fairly clear. Later pictures of either of the astronauts on the Moon were typically taken by one of the astronauts (during the Apollo 11 landing, Armstrong was usually the one handling the camera, so most of the pictures are of Aldrin). The video taken of the lander taking off from the surface was done by an automated camera left on the surface and guided through radio control by an operator on Earth.
