Apple's new spaceship headquarters will have a bigger footprint than the Pentagon, reports MacObserver.
John Martellaro first noted that the Pentagon has sides that are 921ft long and a diameter for 1,566ft. He then used drawings released by the City of Cupertino to calculate the diameter of the planned Apple headquarters.
Given that comforting sanity check, I measured the diameter of the Apple spaceship as 1615 ft, plus or minus a few ft., depending on where one places the ruler. That's a radius of 807.5 ft.
So, if one could magically fly the future Apple spaceship to Arlington, VA and hover over the Pentagon, it would just slightly cover it.
