As far as I know, we don't have a flag representing our entire world. Maybe someone should make one.
The word you need to learn is "of". The word you used, "off", means "
not on".
When Columbus landed somewhere in the America's he planted the flag of spain. Again, there was no flag for all of Europe. Even if there was, he would not have used it. And even if there were a flag for our whole world, it would be planted alongside of the American flag. Patriotism, you know, is everywhere.

Because people have pride in their country, so they want to show who was first to put a man on the moon. But I don't see where a U.N. flag or world flag would hurt the moon, lol.

last time man landed on the moon it was competition between the USA and the USSR, the winning team put their flag and the other team gave up the competition.
Maybe next time the mission to the moon will be multinational, so a lot of new flags will be put there.

The International Chess organisation, FIDE (which has the second largest group of countries affiliated to it after FIFA, of any world sports body) has a useful (Latin) motto "Gens Una Sumus" = "We are One People" and a logo which is a stylised representation of the globe,
That could perhaps be adapted for this purpose?

Because only United States taxpayers paid for the moon landings. And it was the cold war.

Because Malawi didn't pay the bills for Apollo.
