You realize you can't actually see it from space, right? You can see the geographic features that the wall follows, but not the wall itself. That'd be like saying you could see I10 from space.

Per NASA, it can be seen in low earth orbit. It's difficult to see (and you have to know exactly what you're looking for) and the weather conditions have to be right, but technically it is "visible from space."



It's much more visible by radar (from space) than with the naked eye and photography.
