Well, I actually did have the Great Wall of China in mind, but you obviously read the article claiming, that the original claim was wrong. Well, it was the only men made object seen from the space, until the polution in China got so bad, there are days you can't see it any more. I still have an old photo taken from the space station MIR, proving it was visable.
So, I'll take this as the correct answer. And the next question is: Who was Ho - Shi - Ming? |

One of the Russian communist leaders?
(That would be Leon Trotsky, closest person I could think of) |

Well htat would probably be the western transcrip of the Russian name.
Yes, he was one of the leaders of the Russian revolution, and he was suppose to take over after the death of Lenin. But Stalin won the tonge-of-war and Trocky escaped to Mexico, where he establishet the 4th international movemant, which however was not really succesful. In Mexico he met with Ernesto Gevara (among other people), but was killed in 1940 by Stalin's agents. OK, just one more to go! Now prepare your self. Which Georgian (as in a formal Soviet republic) composer created the "Sabre dance"? |
