- Reason
- The current FP (24,000 × 12,000 px) is 3.24 times smaller than the suggested replacement image (43,200 × 21,600 pixels), which seems to be the original image resolution as published by NASA. It appears that the former image was shrunk to fit upload limits back in 2006.

- D&R - not even sure this needs a vote; an otherwise-identical higher-resolution replacement could just have be uploaded over the top of the original file, I think? But yes, if it is needed, it should obviously pass TSP (talk) 23:07, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
