Most things outdoors are visible from space with a high enough resolution/zoom camera. I’ve always thought the statement “viable from space” was closer to meaningless rather than exaggerated.

“Visible from space with the naked eye” would be more meaningful but rarely is that claim made.

In this case it’s more visible on google Maps, which was actually taken from space vs high resolution aerial photos.
