Neil Armstrong planted the U.S. flag on the moon to show the world that the moon was finally conquered. Till then it was only a dream to land on the moon.
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.
No. If you look at the moon with the naked eye on Earth, you see craters that look very small. However, the craters are very large, and larger than the American flag Neil Armstrong placed. Because the size difference from Earth effects the size of the craters from the naked eye, you would not be able to see the flag. In fact, from the moon looking back to earth, you can see no man-made structures at all. The distance is too far. Also, the flag was knocked flat by the force of the lunar module's take-off from the surface.
The flag on the Moon is a normal everyday flag.
he put it on the moon he did it yea
The US flag is on the moon because the US landed there and planted it there to claim and prove we were there.

Neil Armstrong landing on the moon!!!
Only the United States of America has, so far, planted their flag (Stars and Stripes) on the Moon.
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. Unfortunately, this flag was too close to the LEM and was blown over when the astronauts took off to leave the Moon.
They were discovering moon rocks and craters and other stuff on the moon. When it was time to leave, they planted an American Flag on the moon.
Neil Armstrong, the landing was on July 20th 1969.
