As I could not find how to edit the wallpaper's description, I'll post here the new link to the original image: https://mediaarchive.ksc.nasa.gov/#/Detail/45316.

Wish I could have got a shot like this (I was there at the Kennedy Space Centre for both nights!) but not as close as this. Anyway I was shooting with a HD Video camera.

Nice image. I think for the sake of consistency, this site should only allow original creations. If they continue to allow sharing images of external sources, there's a danger that this site could become simply a search engine for wall papers. PLEASE KEEP IT FOR ORIGINALS. Perhaps they could create a separate site to provide other links.

This isnt exactly the first NASA picture that IFL approves... I remember seeing some hubble picture not too long ago.

Perhaps this was allowed because Bruno Casarini said the following at the end of his description: "Kennedy Media Gallery: KSC-2010-1674 Photo credit: NASA/Sandra Joseph and Kevin 'Connell." Although, I believe it would have been better to put this at the BEGINNING of the description for those who saw it and said, "whoa, tl;dr". But more than that, they should have denied this in order to remain consistent with the fact that it says, "By submitting this form I certify that the content of this submission IS ENTIRELY MY OWN WORK... etc."

@ obreuer: Given the pace of change, there might not be much more chance to see such a launch!

Simply amazing. This picture represents so much more than just a photo. For those who have not yet took the time to go to kennedy space center to see a launch, live, only two words: DO IT ! I saw the launch of the STS 127 last year, It's simply incredible ... Great picture !

"I will begin to submit my entire Magritte collection - they make phenomenal computer wallpapers" I can see where people are coming from in opposition, but I would love to see more "art" and such on this sight.
