Shouldn't they be looking for that instead of the Ark?

Don't give them ideas. Before long they'll want to construct a giant cross that'll be visible from space.
So that alien civilizations can learn about the Love of Christ.
Praise be!

The Tower of Babel does not exist anymore and the Great Wall does.

The tower of babel was destroyed.
That happened a really long time ago.
It was one of the 7 wonders of the ancient world, and there's only one of the wonders left, which are the pyramids.
Also, it's rather pointless to look for the Ark from space, as it would be thousands of years old. The only way for it to still be around (If it even existed), is if it was underground (and in a dry environment, not some wet cave), or frozen in ice.
But you are correct, it would be much easier to find the location of where the tower was built, as satellites won't be able to find a rotting ship that's underground or frozen in ice.

You can't see the Great Wall of China from space. it is earth-colored.
There are other man-made objects that can be seen, but not this one.
Since the Tower and the Ark [if they are in fact true stories] were made thousands of years ago, they have vanished long ago.

The tower of Babel, if it did exist, was destroyed. As with other old structures, the stones comprising that building would have been removed and used for other construction projects.

The Great Wall is not so ancient as Babel. It has had more time to erode.
Why would anyone be interested in Babel?
The ark I sort of understand because of its legend, but there was nothing remarkable about Babel except the arrogance of the people.

Pretty sure the Tower of Babel story was like God's way of saying "Dude, don't EVEN try and find me or figure out where I am or question me or anything like that. Because if you do..."

"It is not mentioned in the Genesis account that God directly destroyed the tower; however, the accounts in the Book of Jubilees, Cornelius Alexander (frag. 10), Abydenus (frags. 5 and 6), Josephus (Antiquities 1.4.3), and the Sibylline Oracles (iii. 117-129) do state the tradition that God overturned the tower with a great wind."
It's not around anymore, bub.

The Tower of Babel doesn't exist. Wasn't it a fictional structure.

It is a lie that you can see the great wall from space. When Neil Armstrong was asked to identify it he pointed out the window and said "that's it." It was then pointed out to him that the continent he was looking at was Africa.
In low orbit you can see it but barely.
