Conditional Support The fact that this is a 'false-color composite image made using infrared, green, and red wavelengths' needs to feature much more prominently in the article caption in particular. JJ Harrison (talk) 06:11, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Oppose It looks cool, it has prime placement in the article, but I question the encyclopedic value of a false color image in regards to illustrating the topic as required by the criteria. I realize a plain picture is just yellowish brownish dust but either this image doesn't add much or the caption both here and in the article does a horrible job of telling us what is being shown and why it's important.

Conditional Support if the issue of false colour is adequately addressed. With sufficient effort it seems one can download LANDSAT7 data directly [1][2], which I imagine comes in separate TIFF images for each channel; and presumably the wavelength sensitivity for each channel is known. The technical quality and value of this image is very good otherwise. As a side note, why aren't there any ground level photographs of this place in the article?
