Can I See the Flag On the Moon Through My Telescope

While the flag planted on the lunar surface by Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin may actually be buried in moondust now, the question always comes up as to whether my telescope, the Celestron NexStar 8SE, is powerful enough to actually see artifacts leftover by the Apollo moon landing missions.

What if you put the telescope a little higher like on a chair.(?) Your (you're) welcome 👌

the flag is probably in kubrick’s basement

I believe we should be able to see the flag in a few more years with the 5000x zoom on the Samsung Galaxy Ultra S27 Ultra Pro Max.

Deep space telescopes: "I can see thousands of light-years away, but that thing*flag on the moon*, that thing terrifies me."

The only way you can see the flag from the moon landings, you point the telescope towards the Nevada desert where it was filmed

[@thomaspayne6866]

Gonna be honest. I don’t believe you’d need a telescope the size of the earth to see a flag on the moon

[@GunnerHeatFire]

I like how he's saying sorry when you literally need a telescope as big as the earth

[@gtamonkey3061]

It’s actually because of the render distance

Try disconnecting your telescope for 30 seconds then plugging it back in

To see the flag you have to find the studio where they filmed this event first 😂

Damn ,the conspiracy nuts come out the wood works anytime the damn moon is mentioned 💀

People be seeing the craters on the moon and think they are the size of potholes but they are actually massive

[@butterchuggins5409]

Please tell me you released the moon after capturing it. That thing is for everybody.

The reason why you can’t see the flag is because it was left in the studio. 😂

It would help if there was a flag there to begin with

unless theres a good shadow, you cant see flag poles on earth, with google earth! and those pictures were taken very close, compared to the moon.
