- teraflop 8y agoAlmost exactly as wide as the Earth.
- simcop2387 8y agoI doubt it'd be significantly smaller than the diameter of the earth already. Can't think of how to set it up but the the ISS is only ~250mi above the earth so my guess would be only a couple hundred miles shorter than the earth's diameter at most.
