Astronaut unknowingly brought souvenir flags to the moon and now you can buy one

Lunar stage capitalism?

But it also happens to be the flag of the only nation on earth that has even attempted to send humans to the moon, so there you have it.

I guess that depends on how you look at it. The Soviets sent circumlunar probes and had programs for manned flybys and eventual moon landings, but the programs lost government support after Apollo 11.
