I've noticed lately - perhaps the last month or two, but could have been a little shorter of longer - that the US Space & Rocket center is not flying either the US flag or the State flag. The flag poles are bare. Anybody have any idea why? It's really a shame regardless of the reason.

Heard they take a huge beating and are very expensive to replace.
Back when they had the big fundraiser that was one thing mentioned somewhere.
They will fly them but rarely and in special occasions. But yeah miss seeing them everyday.

Something needs to be done about that. I'm not sure, but I've read that they don't get any pandemic relief funding, and that needs to change. We need to contact our congressmen. I'm not all that concerned about the state flag, but the US flag should be flying proudly.
