With no air on the moon, why is the flag is waving in some of the landing photos?

Gravity from the flat earth that pushes the flag outwards.

They are shaking it when putting the flag pole in the ground. Then there is nothing to stop it moving around as there is no wind resistance

There were aliens but the Deep State edited them out.

It has a rod in it to keep it up.

The flag has a frame.

Go watch the actual moment on YouTube.

It was made to look like it was waving. Like a sticker one might put on the back of their car but 3 dimensional.

It takes special talent to start a thread with a question whose answer you could have looked up
quote:

A horizontal rod had been inserted through a hem at the top of the flag, but the astronauts had trouble pulling the telescoping rod all the way out, leading to that rippling effect. In other words, it was an engineering blunder.

Cause it has a frame around it holding it in place. And no, it’s never “waving” around.

The whole “frame” thing is an after-the-fact myth created by the Obama White House.

How do you know there's no air? You ever been there?
