The 51st star was added to the U.S. flag on July 4, 1960, following the admission of Hawaii as the 50th state on August 21, 1959. The flag was designed to incorporate the new star in a uniform manner, maintaining the existing pattern of stars. The new design featuring 51 stars has remained unchanged since then.
