  • This image is beautiful. cohesion | talk 05:28, July 31, 2005 (UTC)
  • I see annoying horizontal lines in the larger version of this image. Is it just me? Otherwise, it's great. -- Longhair | Talk 12:18, 31 July 2005 (UTC)
    • I don't see any horizontal lines -Quadraxis 01:57, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

  • Oppose -I've replaced the image with a larger version and added more information to the page though I still can't support it. The building and light in the foreground are highly distracting and there are much better images of the phenomenon out there. The Cassini launch being one.--Deglr6328 02:09, 1 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Support - Although there have been complaints about the building in the picture, I think that it adds more to the feel of being in the audiance watching the rocket launch into space. --ZeWrestler Talk 11:59, 2 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Support Beautiful picture. TomStar81 05:23, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
  • ( − ) Oppose Nice pic, but too noisy for my standards --Fir0002 09:22, August 3, 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Agree with Fir0002. Enochlau 10:49, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose, the larger version is indeed too noisy. Phoenix2 18:41, August 4, 2005 (UTC)
  • Support. It's like looking at God. There's noise in the large version, but the image is so big that I don't care. Coffee 13:06, 7 August 2005 (UTC)

  • Support Great looking photo. The image is huge, so the noise shouldn't really be a problem. Balster neb 11:51, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Support. Any picture will have noise if you blow it up enough. At regular size, it's striking. --Golbez 22:13, August 10, 2005 (UTC)

  • Oppose - we already have one FP on Space Shuttle Columbia and several other similar NASA pictures. This one is very good, but its a crowded field. -- Solipsist 20:43, 12 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Support. The buildings in the foreground give it a unique effect. --Titoxd 00:08, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
