American flags planted on the moon by Apollo astronauts are still standing, still casting shadows.

NASA sent six crews to land on the moon between 1969 and 1972. New photos from NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter show all flags standing except the one posted by Apollo 11. That was not a surprise; astronaut Buzz Aldrin had reported he saw the flag blown over by the exhaust from their ship’s engine as they left the lunar surface.
