Introduction

In a couple of scenes there's a small display of flags, the American and French ones and a third flag.
Jorge Candeias, 16 May 2007

I saw (again) the old Spielberg's movie Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Throughout the film there are three flags hoisted prominently in several places — US flag (the landing spot is somewhewre in Wyoming, if I recall correctly), French flag (the leader of the scientific team is French) and in between the two a white flag with a whide triangle in the middle. This is supposedly the flag of the science team.
Željko Heimer, 6 April 1999

At the landing site, only the Mayflower flag is seen.

Science Team

The flag for the science team is for their project: Mayflower. Its a triangle with a dark blue field with an eight pointed star and the word "MAYFLOWER" below.
Martin Connors, 26 Augustus 2006

The organisation is called Mayflower, and its symbol is shown in this still I captured. It shows the symbol as it appeared on a folder of briefing information being circulated at a meeting of the organisation. On another still the flag is fringed, as it is being displayed indoors, but it also appears towards the end of the film flying outdoors, at the secret base where the mothership lands, and it is unfringed.

Plain triangle?

Large black triangle centered on a white field. The triangle also shows up in folders that are distributed to the technical staff in a meeting, but unlike these, the triangle in the flag seems to be unadorned.
Jorge Candeias, 16 May 2007

A white flag with a whide triangle in the middle. This is supposedly the flag of the science team, but it is never seen very well to see details in the triangle (maybe a white globe and some inscription).
Željko Heimer, 6 April 1999

Another still shows that the triangle on the flag is not unadorned.
André Coutanche, 16 May 2007

Black triangle?

A triangle with a dark blue field.
Martin Connors, 26 Augustus 2006

The triangle is not dark blue, looks pretty black to me.
