It is not waving, it is WRINKLED.
If that was filmed in a secret warehouse, INDOORS, there would not have been wind there either, would it?
This question comes on average twice a day that I can see, and it is getting tedious to bring you the same answer. Why can answered check the logs before asking the same thing again and again?
My final argument is that the USSR was racing the USA to be first on the moon in the 1960's. The Soviets had both the means AND the desire to prove the US landing was fake if it was, as it would have humiliated the US, and allowed them to be first on the moon for real. They did not say anything. Why? Because they KNEW the landing was real.

Do some reading about the Apollo missions, and you will be able to determine for yourself the truth - that the US did land 2 men on the moon in July 1969 and another 10 over the following few years.
Conspiracy theories about this event have no scientific basis of their arguments, and every "theory" proposed to debunk the landing (like your reference to the flag) is very easily explained (if people just had a little common sense and some knowledge of physics).

With so many thousands of people all over the earth involved in the space program at the time, there is no way that they could "fake" this particular time in history. I saw it, millions of other people saw it, it happened.

Yes Americans did land on the Moon.

Don't worry a bit about the fact that Americans like to see
their flag wave. Those guys did something so fantastic,
and so challenging that some guys just have to jeer and
sneer at it. Would you have the guts to blast out into
space with a 50-50 chance of ever coming back - being
stuck on the Moon with your air running out - no chance of return? They took the chance and came back.

The moon's lots closer, some days holiday away. the closest planet might take months of holiday. the whole project would desire to be a year or greater, and we've not got a spacecraft yet able to being self-retaining that long. Plus the moon has lighter gravity than the planets with stable surfaces, so much less gas became mandatory for that touchdown. we'd would desire to artwork out the thank you to hold an superior payload of gas and greater effective engines. NASA is working on it, and the recent Orion spacecraft is predicted to holiday to Mars.

The flag does not wave. When the astronauts are shaking it as they push the pole into the ground, it shakes. After that, when the astronauts are not touching it. It sits perfectly still. It stands out because of the stiff horizontal bar along the top edge, but it is NOT WAVING.

Look at some of the many video clips in the source and you will see.

The flag was placed on a special flexible lanyard that picked up the moon's vibrations so the flag would "wave" in an airless environment, like the inside of your head

The flag is rigid. So is your brain.

Six manned missions landed on the moon.

I dont quite understand why this question keeps popping up. Even in todays era of CGI and other fantastic special effects, it would be impossible to fake such a thing. The technology simply was not available, and is STILL NOT available to fake it.

Yes 2 times. I was there to help oick up the space capsule that landed in the Pacific.

you wrong..the moon has air composed of nitrogen and hydrogen and some other gases ...the history is true Neil Armstrong and his crew went to the moon...
