Honestly I think it'd probably be better if you replaced the star/magnolia canton with the seal.
One of the TLs I am working on but haven't published it here yet. If it was a videogame, it would probably be in its "alpha" stage or even before that. Nothing is yet definitive.
Flag of United Nations Administration of the Free States Of Dalmazia, Istria, Lubiana and Trieste
I agreeputting the shields side-by-side tends to make the design looks overly busy. By combining them, your eyes are drawn to a single point in the flag so that the design looks simpler.

British Extraterrestrial ColoniesThe British Martian Territory is one of Britian's newest territories with the establishment of the Helen Patricia Sharman Martian Base and the Timothy Nigel Peake Martian Base. British Mars is very small compared to other colonial ventures on the planet, such as Chinese Mars, American Mars, Russian Mars, Indian Mars, and European Mars. The unique shield on the British Martian flag depicts the Martian surface at sunrise with a Martian Rover silhouetted by the rising Sun. The flag was first created on the Churchill Base in the British Lunar Territory by Major Daniel Tennant in 2039 to be sent on a resupply mission to the Helen Patricia Sharman Martian Base.
Colonial Flags of the United Kingdom carry a few commonalities. The Union Jack in the Canton, the colony's seal on the right, and a field of a specific colour depending on the type of colony. Red for the Civil Ensign, Blue for the local government, White for Arctic and Antarctic territories, and Black for the Extraterrestrial Colonies. All extraterrestrial territories use a similar coat of arms for all territories. There is a lion on the left, Laika on the right, a Spacesuit helmet on the top, a shield with a unique design for each colony, and the ground of the planet at the bottom.

British Luna
The British Lunar Territories were first established in late 2020s with the Winston Churchill Lunar Base. The unique shield design depicts the lunar surface at Earthrise. Sitting on the surface is a Lunar Lander from the Apollo 11 mission. The Lunar Territory, similar to the Martian one, is the smallest of the territories. It's significantly smaller than its next largest neighbor, the European Lunar Colonies. It's currently led by General Charles Aldrin Keynes, who was first appointed by King William V in 2029 to run the colony.

Because the British don't have any internationally known space accomplishments of their own.Intriguing.
Why do the British Extraterrestrial Colonies contain a) Laika from the USSR's Sputnik 2 and b) lunar lander from the USA's Apollo 11?

But why would they choose a dog in the first place? It's rather odd without context.Because the British don't have any internationally known space accomplishments of their own.
In all actuality, I needed another animal for the heraldry and Laika was the best choice for that since dogs in heraldry is still fairly common.
For the Lunar Lander, it's probably one of the first things people picture when they think of people on the moon so I put it there.

While this is better, maybe still add UN insignia somewhere?
Although the original Free Territory of Trieste didn't have an UN insignia, I do have to agree @Gokbay .
They're British Space Flags. Unless Britain was involved in the Russian Space Programme or the Monarch/Prince of Wales married a Russian there's no reason to use Russian Dogs in British heraldry.Because these are 'space flags' and Laika was the first animal in space? Makes perfect sense to me.

The trick is finding something quintessentially British and obviously space related. I suppose you could have the monster from the Quatermass Experiment....They're British Space Flags.

All's well as God has long abandoned Mississippi."Thou shalt not place any text upon a flag"
