Description
Arcturus :"Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mindbogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the drug store, but that's just peanuts to space." - Douglas Adams

you got it wrong though, unless the planet is bigger than the sun/star that shines on it, the shadow would get more pointy (like this: O> ) as the sun gets closer. It is probably just a huge spaceship with really strong headlights that produces the light~ ...

Eventually yes it would do that, but not over the scales of the picture. In addition, the location of the viewer can make the diminishing shadow appear larger as it get's closer.

A puppy the size of a million puppies. A godzilla sized puppy going through the city. The military is powerless against it because not even the most ruthless soldier could shoot a puppy.
