With a POD no earlier than October 1957(Sputnik), get the flag now known as the Confederate flag planted by American astronauts on the moon.
Some restrictions...
- it has to be a full sized flag.
- it can be planted along with the American flag(possibly in a lesser position), but no more than those two. IOW you can't posit that the astronauts plant dozens of flags, and the Confederate flag just happens to be one of them.
- it has to be the full Confederate flag, not eg. a state flag that incorporates the Confederate flag.
- you can't wish the Confederacy back into existence, or even, for that matter, invest the southern states with any more formal power than they enjoyed IOTL. Though you can posit a situation where the rest of the country is more eager to flatter or appease them.
