The Great Wall of China is not visible from space, however, there are many other man made things that are.

Maybe I can cheer you up with the knowledge that there is a fungus that is 2400 years old and about 2200 acres in size!

Never, under any circumstances whatsoever allow a Duck to drive your car.

I remember getting into a taxi driven by a duck once upon a time. The bill was enormous

Define "Space". The Great wall of China is certainly not visible from the moon but parts of it are visible from low earth orbit.

The A38 is the longest A-road wholly within England. It also used to host Europe's largest roundabout at Marsh Mills until a flyover was built across it.

100km from the surface and above

e:When I say 'not visible' I mean with the mkI eyeball, not a camera with a flipping great hoooooge telescopic lens

That's just quackers.

Only if you count entire settlements as a single thing. I'd say that a city is a collection of things rather than a thing.

Until about 500 years ago, there was a species of eagle (Haast eagle) large enough and powerful enough to carry a small person. Not Gandalf, but probably Bilbo.
