After 37+ years it's undoubtedly faded and even if it wasn't it would be difficult because you're looking down on it from above so the angle is not right

No telescope on earth or even orbiting above the planet has the resolution to see any of the six flags on the Moon. You can, however, aim a laser at the Moon and see it reflected by the reflectors left on the surface by the astronauts for that purpose.

There is no telescope with the resolution that would show it. Google earth is not real time. It's a collection of many photo's taken over years from different satellites. Simply said, you can't see it.

i can assure you that because it was over thirty years ago --- there is Buckley's of seeing the pole it was put on --- let alone the flag --- everything deteriorates --- even on the moon
