They are a feature of the planet, innit

Is that why aliens keep skipping over us? I’m beginning to think we’re on galactic quarantine.

Ooh, look! A planet! 👽

No son, we don’t go to that one.

What? We’ve gone to literally every single planet in the galaxy with life on it, why not complete the list??

You’ll understand when you’re older. Let’s go.

Thank you! Im not sure how people here are affording ten different news subscriptions with the amount of pay walls I encounter.

Visible from space… If you zoom in enough with a powerful telescope maybe. Surely this would not be visible to the naked eye from the space boundary. Otherwise everything literally under the sun would be “visible” from space.

I understand the sentiment, however, I think the scale of mans inhumanity here is all the scale we need to see.

Exactly, and that’s why the title, “visible from space”, makes such a disrespectful spectacle of the whole thing.

I mean, they are technically correct.

Depends what you mean. Visible to whom, by what means.

I wonder if that’s the only way it’s visible. Like, I would expect to hear some reference to reporters or their accounts of events if there were any. There are unfortunately a lot of options right now for war journalists and given the 18 month siege, I could see it being difficult for them to really get there.
