The flag of Ascension Island, a British Blue Ensign with the island's coat of arms. Ascension is a remote volcanic island in the South Atlantic, part of the territory of St Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha.
It turns up rarely: in posts from people who work or serve there, from wildlife fans who follow its green sea turtles, and from flag collectors who want every emoji flag.
It looks a lot like other British territory flags, so check the coat of arms before relying on it.
