Want To Know How The 'Statue Of Unity' Looks From Space? Check Out The First Image

Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel's 'Statue of Unity' at Kevadiya in Gujarat on October 31. Standing at a massive height of 182 metres, it is the tallest statue in the world.

In the age of Google Earth, it's quite clear that just about anything can be visible from space if you look hard enough, but one imagines that eyes in the sky wouldn't need to squint to see the world's new tallest statue -- India's Statue of Unity.

The 597-feet Statue of Unity of India's "Iron Man" Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel has been shared by the American Constellation of Satellites owned by Sky Lab. The image shows the statue from top angle with River Narmada flowing near it.
