Why was it that the flag held by Neil Armstrong in travelling to the moon was moving?

The movement of the flag on the moon was due to the inertia of the fabric after being unfurled in the vacuum of space. Since there is no air resistance on the moon, the flag kept moving when it was set in motion by Armstrong, creating the appearance of waving.

Did Americans actually land on the moon because i was watching the video and the flag was moving in outer space?

Yes they did. From BadAstronomy.com (see below)Bad: When the astronauts are assembling the American flag, the flag waves. Kaysing says this must have been from an errant breeze on the set. A flag wouldn't wave in a vacuum.Good: Of course a flag can wave in a vacuum. In the shot of the astronaut and the flag, the astronaut is rotating the pole on which the flag is mounted, trying to get it to stay up. The flag is mounted on one side on the pole, and along the top by another pole that sticks out to the side. In a vacuum or not, when you whip around the vertical pole, the flag will ``wave'', since it is attached at the top. The top will move first, then the cloth will follow along in a wave that moves down. This isn't air that is moving the flag, it's the cloth itself.The moon hoax is a myth propagated by con artists that want to sell books.

Why is the endeavor space shuttle's painted flag upside down?

The American flag on the Endeavour space shuttle is positioned in the orientation that creates the illusion of the flag waving as the shuttle travels through the atmosphere. This design choice was intentionally made to reflect the dynamic nature of the space shuttle's missions.

It is said that there is no wind on the Moon but in Neil Armstrongs video the flag was moving does that mean it's fake?

i have a theory. the flag could be moving because the man himself was moving and since space is a vacuum, he could be moving the particles around him, which caused to flag to move.. maybe An episode of MythBusters addressed this question. Using a vacuum chamber, they showed that the inertia used by the astronauts to secure the flag in place was enough to keep it waving for several full seconds after letting go.

How do you know your moving?

If you see anything that appears to be moving, then you know that relative to that thing, you're moving. That's the best and only thing you can do, because there is no such thing as 'really' moving ... only moving relative to something.
