What is the only natural structure to be seen from outer space?

Man-made Structure, not Natural Structure(from space, you see clouds, continents, and polar ice at the greatest distance)The question directly refers to the Great Wall of China, which was variously claimed could be seen "from the Moon" or "from outer space", because it is the longest and largest man-made artifact on the surface of the Earth.The truth is that materials and "thinness" of the Wall make it nearly invisible from Earth orbit unless you know what to look for. Astronauts aboard the International Space Station have had difficulty locating it even in clear weather with powerful binoculars. The fact is, as clearly demonstrated by anyone using Google Map's "satellite view" is that large cities, farms, and airports are just as visible as the Great Wall, which tends to blend in with its surroundings in many sections.(see related question)

Can you see the great barrer reef from space?

Yes, the Great Barrier Reef is visible from low earth orbit. It is reported to be the only living thing visible from space with the unaided eye. It can be seen from the International Space Station and the Space Shuttle. Further out in space, such as from the moon, it is not visible. Imagery from satellites is important in determining the extent of coral bleaching occurring on the reef which is threatening the coral. This can be detected from space imagery to a depth of 10m. Maps made from these images can determine the extent and progression of the bleaching. MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) images taken from space keep watch over the location of coral bleaching on the reef. NASA's Terra and Aqua satellites monitor surface temperature and color. Data from these images appears online within three hours of the satellites' orbit passing over the reef. MODIS imagery discovered that river plumes from Queensland were travelling to the outer reef. Without being able to see the reef from space, scientists had not realised the debris from land traveled so far. Space shuttle astronauts have also observed and photographed massive algal blooms on the reef which could impact the health of the reef. The reef also has massive seagrass meadows which have also been visible to the astronauts.
