Question. Is this an actual photo, or an artist's concept? Clegs (talk) 00:50, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It is an actual photo, I believe. --Meldshal 01:02, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I really doubt it. I don't think (correct me if I'm wrong) that NASA has a telescope, even the Hubble, that is capable of taking pictures with quality and color that good of things that are so far away. Anybody else have input? Clegs (talk) 01:13, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry. Thought it was obvious that it was a satellite image. However, NASA fails to identify which one took this. --Meldshal 01:21, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - not a real photo, and jpegy. deBivort 01:52, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
May I ask what you mean by jpegy? And the image is not fake, it is still taken by satellite. There are plenty of other featured pictures taken by satellite. --Meldshal 01:54, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - this was NOT taken by a satellite. If you note, all the satellites were blinded at the time of the event, therefore they couldn't have taken a picture. THis is an artist's rendering. All NASA images will state which instrument was used, and in this case none was because it is a drawing. Here's a real image of a neutron star for comparison [1] note that on the side, it says what insturments were used. pschemp | talk 01:58, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy Close On Snowball Act grounds. The information concerning the picture is also inaccurate. The nominator should have done research to find accurate info and possibly a larger picture. You can find a bigger picture here as well as a note saying "an artist's conception" [2]. Artist drawings rarely pass. victorrocha | talk 04:00, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
