Flag Day June 14, 1996

On Flag day the town of Silver City, New Mexico raised the rainbow as a flag above all other flags. Fred Stern feels that if the planet were to have a flag it would be the rainbow. So on this flag day the town honored the Earth's flag. Stern said "So much of humanities future depends on our shifting from Nationalistic to Global Citizens.

The event was created using a firetruck with a cherry picker and straight bore nozzle. An evening moon rainbow was attempted, but did not work because of excessive ambient lighting.
