  • Comment Several components such as bow shock, magnetotail or plasma sheet are in fact cut off so that their actual extent is beyond the image. Also the Earth's atmosphere label here doesn't give a sensible information to me, it may be better to place an ordinary scale bar instead. Brandmeistertalk 18:16, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Agree. --WingtipvorteX PTT 22:13, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support I think that if all components were not cut off then the earth would be too small. The diagram is thoughtfully put together and I learned something from it, not finding myself distracted by crops or labels or pixelation. Plus I'm a sucker for diagrams.--Efbrazil (talk) 05:04, 23 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support I agree that it would make the earth too small if the elements were not cut off the way they are. Rreagan007 (talk) 16:49, 27 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
