Reason: Arguably one of the most important images ever created for our understanding of the universe. The 7-year image is more detailed, over the 5 year image, although they look virtually identical to the naked eye. We should keep the FP on the most recent of these images, it's POSSIBLE they'll release another study later, but this project is nearing the end of it's life cycle.

D&R, per nom. A longer study means a better more detailed image in this case. Very important in understanding the Big Bang Theory. I've added in the caption that these variations in temperature are extremely tiny - which is the main reason for the theory. Jujutacular ^T · C 20:08, 12 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment This is used in a couple templates: I'll start switching it over, since it takes a bit to refresh all the usages, and there's presumably not more than a handful of cases where the old version would be desirable. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 22:47, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Right. Everything that should be switched over now is; this may be closed at will. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 02:44, 23 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
