Sorry, but the link to the NASA Wepage did not cut & and paste as a link. 
See if this works.

From another geocacher: That pops up occasionally on lists of weird thing in 
GE.  The amazing think is that the word is 2.5 miles long.  In fact because 
it can be measured precicely,NASA uses it to help calculate resolution on 
images taken from space.  See last paragraph of "5.5. Empirical Confirmation 
of Spatial Resolution Estimates" on the NASA webpage.
