Readers Digest had an article that intrigued me "15 Things That Can Actually Be Seen from Space" The majority of the 15 are not in the United States, only a few are with TWO things in Idaho.

Idaho is known for great sunsets and star gazing. NASA trains and does testing in Idaho and we even have a native Idahoan who has been to the International Space station multiple times. See where got voted the best star gazing spot in the state that draws astronomers in from all over.
One of Idaho's largest tourist attractions is Craters of the Moon National Monument. It is a lot more than just hardened rock, Idaho's lava beds served as a training site for some of the most famous astronauts and space adventurers of the century.
