Support -- LuisArmandoRasteletti (talk) 00:29, 16 June 2010 (UTC)- Support Beautiful picture... but did you really take it? :) Laurent (talk) 00:39, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
Strong support It's not really fair that we have so many landscape pictures from Earth and almost none from other celestial bodies. --The High Fin Sperm Whale 02:48, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
- I'd be happy(probably few others around here as well) to go get some pictures but we would need some funding assistance from the foundation to cover travel costs :) Gnangarra 08:18, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
- Support something totally different from the usual NASA collection of FP's Gnangarra 08:18, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

Oppose distracting crosses all over the image. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 14:24, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

Neutral I have made an annotation. What is that? :S Rastrojo (D•ES) 21:44, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
- It looks like the photo is made of three photos pieced together, and this white line could be the intersection of two of the photos. Laurent (talk) 23:28, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
- Stitching artefact. You can see it continue downslope as a blur in the land. - MPF (talk) 23:30, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
- Can anybody fix it? Rastrojo (D•ES) 01:06, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
- Support - Truly amazing content, and surprisingly good quality for a 1972 shot. Small stitching issues and crosshairs are mitigated by... well, the obvious. –Juliancolton | Talk 00:03, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
- Support Amazing! Jacopo Werther (talk) 09:20, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

- Info How many degrees wide is that photo? More than 180°? On the right side of the picture the shadows point to a different direction than on the left side of the picture. ---donald- (talk) 10:03, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
- Indeed. I would estimate 200-250°. Jujutacular T · C 13:47, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose --Very impressive view and quality but unfortunatelly too many stitching problems and CA. Sting (talk) 17:23, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
- Can we really fault CA on the moon in the early 70s?? –Juliancolton | Talk 19:04, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
- And it's not like we are going back there any time soon to take a better shot. Laurent (talk) 19:07, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
- I'm just pointing out that the fringes could have been desaturated in order to avoid those unatural purple areas as it's a very easy post-processing operation. For the stitching, unfortunatelly... Sting (talk) 22:25, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
- Support Iconic and for all practical purposes impossible to reshoot. — raeky (talk | edits) 15:00, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

- Support--MZaplotnik (my contribs) 19:20, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose - would like to support, but the number and badness of the stitching errors is just a bit too much. Would it be possible to get the individual section pics and re-stitch with more modern software? - MPF (talk) 17:36, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
- This site seems to have the full set of Apollo 17 images but unfortunately they resized them all to a low resolution :( They have some highres panoramas as well but not the one we're interested in. nasa.org and nasaimage.org don't seem to have the full set of pictures either. Laurent (talk) 20:19, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose The other moon panorama looks better. --99of9 (talk) 02:25, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose per others. If it passes, it should be delisted in favor of the other one. --ianaré (talk) 10:21, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
