The US flag was planted by Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin, the first man and second man to walk on the Moon. The iconic photo of Aldrin with the flag was taken by Neil Armstrong.

James Whittaker was the first US citizen to climb Everest in 1963, 10 years after Hilary and Tenzing. It is likely that he planted a US flag there.
He planted the first human footstep onto the moon's surface and set the US Flag. He stayed less than an hour on the moon testing gravity and doing experiments. He also walked near craters.
The U.S. flag planted on the moon during the Apollo missions was made of nylon. It had a special rod along the top edge to help it unfurl and hold its shape in the airless environment of the moon. The flag's distinctive appearance in photographs is due to the lack of atmosphere on the moon, which prevented it from waving or rippling.
