How the American flag flew in the moon since there is no atmosphere in the moon?

I think that was a drama.

The Hubble Space telescope's maximum resolution is such that an entire Apollo landing site and exploration area are only 1/20th of a pixel. Hubble was designed with deep space astronomy in mind.\n\nEven the new OWL telescope (see Link 1) would only resolve the entire site to 2 pixels and would therefore not be enough to see the flag.\n\nIf your question is to prove that man actually walked on the moon then you need look no further than the Laser Reflector Experiment which constantly laser measures the distance between earth and moon. If the astronauts had never made it to the moon, they would not have been able to deploy these reflectors. (see Link 2)

Because it's to far away.  And it's still in orbit with the Earth.  When an object moves it doesn't want to stop.  Therefore the Moon stays with us.

probably not, the moon has no atmosphere. meteor showers can be seen from space however, but i think from the moon would be a little too far away

Based on the information out there, I now believe that they never went  to the moon. There is no wind on the moon, yet the flag blows in the background. The angles of lighting do not match the way they are supposed to, unless lighting was set up...and an extensive amount. The temperatre that the films would have been subjected to, would have destroyed the pictures. And for the picture of the footprint on the moon, there would have had to have been moisture to create such a mark. If you take completey dry sand and try to make a castle out of it, what happens? It crumbles...any child who has been to the beach knows that you need a little water. so, anyone can believe what they want, but im going on facts :)\n\nps...dont mind my spelling

TEMPERATURE\nThe temperature on the Moon ranges from daytime highs of about 130°C = 265°F to nighttime lows of about -110°C = -170°F \n\nATMOSPHERE\nThe moon has no atmosphere. On the moon, the sky is always appears dark, even on the bright side (because there is no atmosphere). Also, since sound waves travel through air, the moon is silent; there can be no sound transmission on the moon.

it does not. weather has nothing to do with the moon. especally last nights Beaver moon

has to be right side up.  i.e.moon and star on top left corner.  not to let it touch the ground when bringing it down.  to be taken down at night and in bad weather.  I don't think there's a particular procedure for folding it, unlike the American flag.\n\ntry an internet search.  might be a little hard to do.  my quick search turned up little

The moon orbits the earth.  It does not 'rise'.  Look in any good newspaper to see what time it is visible in your area.  This information can be found in the weather section.

Why can't we see the flag on the moon?  \nA.    Lets assume that: \nThe height of the flag (a) pole in ft. = 6 \nThe average distance to the Moon (approx) in miles = 221,000 \nWhich means that the distance to the Moon (approx) in feet (b) = 1,166,880,000 \nB.    Given the above: \nThe tangent (t) of the above in radians [tan(a/b)] = 0.0000000051, in radians \nConverted to Degrees [180*(t/pi)] = 0.000000295 degrees \nThis means that a telescope would have to be able to resolve an angle of 2.95 x 10-07 degrees to see the flag left on the moon.\nC.    That means:\nSince one Arc Degree (1/360 of a circle) = 1.000000000 Deg. \nAnd one Arc Minute (1/60 of a degree) = 0.016666667 Deg. \nAnd one Arc Second (1/60 of an arc-minute) = 0.000277778 Deg. \nWe can calculate that:  \nThe Angle to be resolved is: 0.000000295 Deg. \nAnd the Angle to be resolved in Arc Seconds is: 0.001060596 \n\nSo, to see the flag, a telescope must be able to resolve an angle less than an 1/1000th of an arc second.\n\n"So how big of a telescope would that require?", you ask.\nThe Dawes limit calculates how close two objects can be and still be resolved by a telescope. \nThe formula is:  Resolution (in arc seconds) = 4.56/Diameter. \nSo, to determine the required diameter, the formula is:  D = 4.56/Resolution(arc seconds) \n\nDoing the math, that is 4.56/.001060596 arc seconds, to see the flag a telescope would require a mirror 4,299.47 inches wide! That is 358.29 Feet!\nA super-telescope THAT big would have to be in orbit, to eliminate the turbulence of the earth's atmosphere.

As others mentioned, the moon has no atmosphere of its own for weather patterns to develop. \n\nThe only wind the moon (or Earth) experiences is the Solar wind.  The solar wind consists of highly energy ions in the form of a plasma.  While the solar wind can effect radio signals and such, it isn't going to do anything to Neil Armstrong's footprints.\n\nThe only thing that truly disturbs the moon surface is impacts by meteorites.  This is evident by the many craters we can see.

Hi Richie.\n\nI got the Best Answer prize for a very similar question a few dyas ago on here that asked if you can see the American flag from Earth. The answer and the reason is exactly the same - so here it is again,\n\nThe Hubble Space telescope's maximum resolution is such that an entire Apollo landing site and exploration area are only 1/20th of a pixel. Hubble was designed with deep space astronomy in mind.\n\nEven the new OWL telescope (see Link 1) would only resolve the entire site to 2 pixels and would therefore not be enough to see the flag.\n\nIf your question is to prove that man actually walked on the moon then you need look no further than the Laser Reflector Experiment which constantly laser measures the distance between earth and moon. If the astronauts had never made it to the moon, they would not have been able to deploy these reflectors. (see Link 2) \n\nSource(s):\nhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/2116...\n\nhttp://www.lpi.usra.edu/expmoon/apollo11...\n\n\nPlease ignore the last bit - coz thankfully it looks like you are not one of those nutters !

Think rally hard. The moon has gravity just like the earth. Have you ever seen a flag on earth stand that straight? They had a metal pole across the top and the grainy video make it look as if it is fluttering.

I was glued to the TV for those days, I know it happened.  \n\nAs far as the flag waving thing, if you notice the flag is fixed along the top by a straight rod and loose on the bottom.  This is because there is no air on the moon to cause it to flutter around.  The astronauts couldn't get the little rod to extend fully, so it appears as if the flag is waving.  Really, it isn't.

Several people have written books trying to disprove our landing on the moon.  I have not actually researched this, but for one thing, supposedly there is no dust on the moon like the ton of dust our astraunats walked through that day.  The photos have been disputed as made up and I believe our corupt government is capable of pulling this off.....)(

No, rain is caused by the evaporation of water into the atmosphere and there is no water on the moon.

Heat transfer in the Earth's atmosphere is dominated by radiation effects, rather than thermal conduction or convection.\n\nIt's complicated, but on average the Earth's surface is a few tens of degrees warmer than the surface of the Moon, which receives the same amount of sunlight, and of course has no atmosphere.
