- Oppose per the same reasons as the last time this image was nominated and did not pass. Spikebrennan (talk) 16:23, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
- Comment I just replaced it with the full size version as suggested in the original nomination discussion (yeah, go figure), so if anyone wants to work on denoising it again... Samsara (talk • contribs) 16:42, 12 February 2008 (UTC) PS: It's a huge file, so people will probably appreciate if the denoised re-upload is at a higher compression (obviously, the denoising will also help with removing excess detail from the image...)

- Great historic importance, really needs denoising. I've got a couple of backlogged restorations of my own right now so would someone else help out? DurovaCharge! 17:11, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose per Spike. Despite historical significance of the event, it's unencyclopaedic (rocket itself is too small to see any detail) and horrifically noisy. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 17:43, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose Technical quality is horrible, this is one of the noisiest pictures I have ever seen. Clegs (talk) 22:53, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose Hopelessly grainy - Adrian Pingstone (talk) 16:55, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
- Strongly Oppose Insanely noisy. Doesn't even look good as a thumb. Also appears to be scanned; several surface scratches are visible at full view. --Extr3me (talk) 18:45, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose Noise is too bad. I don't much like the composition either--Trounce (talk) 17:01, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
