The images are ones you have to see to believe. One of the world's biggest icebergs is stuck spinning in an ocean vortex off the coast of Antarctica.

According to Wiki,
“Artificial structures visible from space without magnification include highways, dams, and cities”
So it is about highway size, I guess.
Of course, example of NBC news idiocy!
The “Visible from space” means nothing!
It depends where the space is, how far from the Earth one is looking.
From International Space station, astronaut with 20/20 vision can theoretically see objects slightly larger than football field.
That would make it rather small!
But even this iceberg would not be visible from Mars without telescope.
From Alpha Centauri, one could not see even the Whole Earth.
And from Betelgeuse, one could not even see our Sun. Everything is relative, visible from space is scientific nonsense.
Finally, the utmost stupidity of iceberg making it from Arctic to Antarctic. They just found something on web and used it. Why those experts did not tell them!
The Arctic Icebergs made it few times as far as Bermudas,
the Antarctic ones to South New Zeeland or Punta Delgada, half way around Argentinian coast!
That’s it, boys and girls, no Iceberg in tropics, ever!
It’s not in danger of melting in any of our lifetimes.
