According to a story in the Daily Sun (complete with photos):
KFC today became the world’s first brand visible from outer space.
The fast food company have created a 87,500 square feet version of their founder, Colonel Sanders.
The stunt has been staged to celebrate a revamp of their logo. It is only the third time in 50 years the logo has been changed. And in case you're struggling to spot the difference - in the new version the colonel wears an apron.
The giant logo was created in the Nevada, near the secretive Area 51. It was made by a team of 50 designers, engineers, scientists, architects and other professionals using one-foot by one-foot painted tile pieces.
The new look colonel will replace the old logo in more than 14,000 KFC restaurants across the world over the next five years.
