NASA moon mission flags still standing

NASA sent multiple missions to the moon between 1969 and 1972. All of the Apollo missions that successfully landed on the moon left an American flag on the surface. According to ABC, all of the flags except for the very first one, left there by Apollo 11’s Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong, are still flying and casting shadows on the moon’s surface.
