101 Science facts that aren't true
#6
Just as that webpage points out mistakes it too has some.

According to astronaut Chris Hadfield and many other sources the Great Wall of China is not visible from space. At least not with the naked eye as it is too narrow and is the same colour as the surrounding rock.

The one about the Fermi paradox which should be called the Hart-Tipler argument is also wrong. The first person on record to ask the question, according to Wikipedia, was Konstantin Tsiolkovsky and even he referenced other people.

I've never heard of some of the facts they are stating.
