It is visible, but quite big and moving very fast so you cannot see it from the ground. -It is often very visible from other aircraft.

Why do birds not cast their shadows while flying high in the sky?
Birds flying up in the sky do not cast their shadow because the source of light (sun) is too large compared to the object (bird) and the umbra of the shadow formed on the screen (ground) is very small, negligible.So it is tough to see its shadow on the ground. (P.S. If this is a VNS student reading this for Physics research, then I'm pretty sure you're in my grade and you know who I am)

Is it illegal to look at a moose from a flying vehicle in Alaska?
Last I checked you cant help it if you happen to look down from a flying vehicle. And I don't think that you will get in trouble if happen to see a moose when you do so. First of all, vehicles (cars) can't fly. That's airplanes. Second, I don't think a moose will be visible from up high in the sky.....what kind of question is this? XD It is illegal in Alaska to push a moose out of a flying airplane though. I don't know why someone would push a moose out a airplane, or why the moose would even be in the airplane on the first place, but it must have happened before because why else would they have the law???
