Mythbusters Of The Cosmos: Can You See The Great Wall Of China From Space?

September 05, 2023 • Anita Hummel • Season 3 • Episode 34

In "Dust Roads," join your host Anita as we unravel the enduring myth surrounding the Great Wall of China's visibility from space. 🚀🇨🇳

One enduring myth about the Great Wall of China is that it’s the sole artificial structure visible from space. This myth emerged in 1938 when space travel was not a reality. However, astronauts who’ve journeyed into space have debunked this claim, asserting they couldn’t discern the Great Wall from their celestial vantage point. Various reasons challenge the long-standing belief and why it isn’t as easy today as it was years ago to see the Great Wall of China from space.
