Seriously, besides the exhaust of the departing lunar module, what could possibly move those flags?

[outofsalt]

Barak Hussain has directed NASA to replace them with asap.

Till China collects them and puts em up for sale on Ebay.

Imagine how many millions each flag would bring in an auction. But, it would not be an eBay auction. It might have to be somewhere like a high-end auction house.

That’s the best thing I’ve ever seen on FR.

Isnt the Earth constantly bombarded with metorites of many sizes and shapes? I bet the moon gets amny more since there is no atmosphere and you would think there would be dust clouds all the time

[NurdlyPeon]

There is NO SUIT made by NASA that can contain that much crazy.

Well, don't forget those suits ARE pressurized.

An ‘extra, extra’ ping to APoD members.

That’s excellent.

It needs to be adopted as the fifth verse of the National Anthem.

The last two lines are quite poignant.
