According to recent reports
(http://gizmodo.com/5930450/all-the-american-flags-on-the-moon-are-now-wh... http://www.skyandtelescope.com/news/Viewing-the-Flags-of-Apollo-16427838... http://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/ApolloFlags-Condition.html),
the flags placed on the moon by U.S. astronauts have turned white due to radiation. While it is astounding that all but one of the flags are still standing, they no longer accurately portray the American ingenuity that put them there.
I petition the Obama Administration to increase funding for NASA, get back to the moon through American technology, and replace the flags with something more permanent.
