Maybe this has been answered already... but in case it hasn't, the flag wasn't waving. It had stiffeners or stays in it so it wouldn't hang limp.

How do you infer that the flag was waving? That is a static picture. Where is the motion?
Of course NASA realized the flag would be limp on the moon. The flag was designed to have a telescoping crossbar along the top that you would pull to extend the flag out and to hold it straight. It got jammed and the astronauts couldn't pull it out all the way and so the nylon flag got bunched up, that's why it's sticking out and that's why it's wavy.

I am glad I am not the only one fighting for the truth and doubting the authority at CP. It needs courage to do so. It is just like who killed President Kennedy. Most people believe American Government's theory and the fact is nobody knows.

Well you know what they say.
One man's "Courage" is another man's totally ######ed ignorance, and complete lack of logical and/or critical thought.

I know there was a cross bar, but the flag should be vertical straight.

This is my point that 99% of CP guys are good at critical thinking.

Good old conspiracy nuts.
They ignore the fact that someone has posted a concise rebuttal of all of their claims and cling to the least logical of them all.
but...but...the flag.....it should be straigh....even though the pole is shorter than the flag and it's bunched up....THERE'S NO AIR

It really does take courage to doubt the truth...no question. Its also futile.
One question..
IF this was staged as you claim and one of those claims of proof is that the flag was waving in the wind....where did this thing get staged that allowed wind to be around (as i assume you think it was done in a studio) , and why would they use it knowing full well there was no wind on the lunar surface.

What the hell is that supposed to mean.
If the 99% of us are good at critical thinking, and realize that everthing you've brought up is complete hogwash, where does that leave you?

Once every question has been explained (debunked), is it just embarrassment that cause people to continue to hold these untenable positions?
I can possibly see people looking at that flag and wondering why it would be flapping in space, but once it has been explained why continue to proclaim these issues when all your "proof" has been refuted?
