Summary[edit]

The photograph was taken during the spacecraft's first "hop", following its successful landing minutes earlier. |

| Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | Hayabusa2 |
| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | To illustrate the achievements of the MINERVA-II rovers by highlighting the first ever photograph taken on the surface of an asteroid by a spacecraft. |
| Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
Since this photograph serves to contextualise and illustrate a historic moment in the history of interplanetary spaceflight, no freely-licensed alternatives to the photograph can exist, primarily because there cannot be a suitable replacement, free or non-free, that replicates the achievements of the MINERVA-II rovers on an identifiable, or possibly even understandable, level. |
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | The image will only be used in the "Rovers" section of the Hayabusa2 article to illustrate the passage detailing the MINERVA-II rover and its accomplishments. |
| Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
Since this copy of the photograph has been reduced in size to comply with the 100,000 pixel limit recommended by the WP:IMAGERES guideline, it is believed that it will not impact on the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency or University of Aizu's ability to profit from their original resolution image, because this copy of the image is too small unsuitable for commercial use. |
