Great Wall

Summary

Description
English: I think I finally found the answer to a question I've been asked a 1000 times. "Can we see the Great Wall of China from the ISS?" Next to impossible with the naked eye. But I tried with an 800 mm tele lens. Still tough to spot. What do you think, is this it?

Eine der häufigsten Fragen an mich ist: "Kann man die Chinesische Mauer von der ISS aus sehen?" Ich glaube ich habe nun endlich die Antwort gefunden: Mit bloßem Auge schwierig. Aber ich habe es mit einem 800 mm Tele probiert. Was meint Ihr - ist sie es?
