B Correct answer
Explanation

The Great Wall cannot be seen from the moon with the naked eye. This is a common myth - the wall is too narrow (about 6 meters wide) to be visible from that distance (384,400 km). Even from low Earth orbit, it's extremely difficult to spot without zoom and ideal conditions. No human-made objects are visible from the moon without aid.
