The U.S. flag planted on the moon during the Apollo missions was made of nylon. It had a special rod along the top edge to help it unfurl and hold its shape in the airless environment of the moon. The flag's distinctive appearance in photographs is due to the lack of atmosphere on the moon, which prevented it from waving or rippling.
