I've now added ALT1, where the ghost artifacts have been digitally removed around the structures. Mikael Häggström (talk) 21:19, 17 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support ALT1 – Nicely done (i.e. excellent work). There is one inadvertent deletion which needs fixing: around x,y=3285,2740 (relative to upper left corner) where Kepler attaches to the space station. Other minor improvements say at x,y=2490,2630 and x,y=2343,693 are possible, but they are too minor. Bammesk (talk) 01:45, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for noticing this, so that I could now have it fixed before any people therein were harmed   Mikael Häggström (talk) 13:21, 19 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
