HOW DARE YOU!?!?!?!

My Sources ARe Comnpletely reliable, Why On earth am i getting this kind of abuse?

The Quiz Came from a BBC show called "QI", If anyone is british then they will og heard of it.

If You People Seriously Beleive the urban myth of the great wall of china being seen from the MOON!!! not a satellite, if you think about it, satellites are only 3,000KM Above the Ground, The Moon Is like 10 times that Distance

No one is abused on the internet. It's not possible. Turn off your computer if you feel so hurt that we don't believe you.

Interesting info. Clearly no man-made structure can be seen from the moon as NASA has stated so. The second moon would be better suited for the context of "second moon". Anyways, fun stuff, thanks.

Nope, I have the proof for ya and you lot wanted, and i presented for you, and for some reason you don't believe it, Why?

Dude all you did was go too some website and pronounce yourself correct. I have taken two years of different geo-Science covering astronomy and me myself enjoy looking into it.

Cruithne is an asteroid which gravity is proportional to the Earth but Look at your own site it even says CRIUTHE ISNT REALLY A MOON!

Actually look into stuff before you make outrageous questions and even more outrageous answers.

okay, I'll Admit that their is no "second moon".

But ppl plz do consider that the moon is about 30,000 Miles Away from earth, surely you couldn't see the great wall from that distance.........

*coughs* Skullhead you're wrong. You can see the great wall of China from the moon. The continents are very clear to see from there too. Except when its all clouded.

Im afraid hes right. Its a major misconception. You cannot see The Great Wall of China from Space. Well depending on how far you are.

here is a very easy quiz, or is it?


1. How Many Moons does the earth have?
2. What Man-made Structure can you see from the moon?
3. "hello" is a way of greeting someone, but what is the other way people can use "hello"


And the last one has no wrong answer (that i know of), just think of the first thing that comes to mind

4. What is the most common material in the world?

1. Depends on who all has their pants pulled down.
2. The space ship.
3. A mistyping of "jello"
4. Nitrogen :P

@ skull: dh00d, look at the profiling of various orbiting man-made objects in space. This isn't about seeing the Great Wall - it's about what man-made objects you can see from the moon, which include, as Oracle said, the space shuttle (if you used some sort of telescope, it would probably be easier to see) and the International Space Station.

10 POINTS!

Technically the only thing that makes it to the moon is the lander so even that isn't visible....

Why in hell would you say that? It isn't logically possible and by first-hand accounts it isn't visible. What is your source? Stupidity?
