The Great Wall of China and the Moon, Asbjorn
Lonvig
Inspired by The Great Wall of China and the Moon.
The Great Wall of China certainly
isn't visible from the Moon.
It's a legend. Alan Bean, Apollo 12 astronaut: The only thing you can
see from the moon is a beautiful sphere, mostly white (clouds),
some blue (ocean), patches of yellow (deserts), and every once in a
while some green vegetation.
No man-made object is visible on this scale.
In fact, when first leaving earth's orbit and only a few thousand miles
away, no man-made object is visible at that point either."
The
Great Wall of China was built over 2,200 years ago,
by the first emperor of China. In Chinese the wall is called "Wan-Li
Qang-Qeng"
which means 10,000-Li Long Wall - 10,000 Li is about 5,000 km - that's
3100 miles.

The print is sent directly to you.
I recommend ImageKind.com in
Seattle for this.
