I tried to combine everything about that event. The American flag, the moon and the spacecraft. Done on 3 layers, the moon, flag and hand holding rocket. Each worked on separately and combined at the end for final collage.
Done on my wacom :)
EDIT: shadow layer removed (as suggested by langstrum) and more detail added to flag.
Any suggestions/ improvements are appreciated. (5 years and 2728 days ago)

Fantastic work. Great talent shown here!
excellent art.!!!
Great work my friend, I like the curve on the flag that fits to the moon shape. I can see you spent time for thinking and came up with this approach. The highlight on the hand is so realistic, well done. In my opinion, maybe you don't need to use the shadow for the hand because the whole image is quite conceptual, rather than a real spatial arrangement of objects. Best of luck to you ^^
Thank you so much Langstrum
It looked a bit flat without the shadow, but I will see what it looks like without it...It is on a separate layer, so it's easy to remove. I did spend time on this and I'm happy with the result...I'm learning from you my friend, thanks to your great tutorials 
wow that hand is verrrrry real looking, but the flag over the planet seems off a bit.
Tried to make it less realistic and focus on hand and plane(where all the detail and time was spent on) and the other two-moon and flag, to compliment the rest as a background. Setting the focal point on the hand.
Realistic construct of hand, artistic and thoughtful image and wonderful presentation of flag..
FANASTIC out come author...
