From roth@ens.ascom.ch:

From 93johnst@scar.utoronto.ca:
I really like the sky. Very nice.

From djconnel@flash.net:

Nicely done!  I can't say much more... the originality isn't huge, but
techically it is quite nicely done.  The only minor point is the simple
texturing, but this is a worthy contender.

(it makes my entry seem embarrassingly trivial....)

Ahhh detail.... ahhhhh great shuttle..... ahhhhhhhh... great sky.  There
is very little that can be added to this to make it much better.  The 
lense flare creates those funky donuts that find their way into the nether
parts of a render and I'm not sure I like the starry look of the sun.

Beautiful sunset. Great contrast for the elegance of both the natural
and the man-made.

Very nice!  Great detail on the structure to the left of the image - I like the
effect of all the little light source lens flares.

This was the one image this round that blew me away. 3 20's from me. You
deserve it.

From chipr@niestu.com:
Very nice image.  I absolutely love the sky--I must look to see how you did
that.  Excellent detail on all the objects.

=====
From gmccarter@hotmail.com:
Immaculate.  Every detail, right down to the O-rings!  Two nitpicks:
US flag looks very fuzzy compared to the sharp detail on the structures.
Sun looks out of place -- with such a deeply colored sunset, I would
expect the sun to be just BELOW the horizon.
Imposing viewpoint.  Outstanding lighting and sky.
Stunning!  A tour de force.

From wozzeck@club-internet.fr:
Very good looking. I like the different colours of the lights.

=====
From ethelm@bigfoot.com:
Excellent! Well Done.
Hard to imagine any improvements.

From bsieker@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de:
Wow! I really love the detailed service tower. The shuttle itself lacks a bit
of
detail in comparison.

=====
From lpurple@netcom.com:
The modelling is great, and the sky texture is a really good "dawn".

From r@dial-up35.webbernet.net>:
The sky and the detaild ground structures, especially the lights are great. 
This is an impressive image.  If I have any complaint, it is that perhaps the
impressive sky and structures overshadow the Shuttle a bit.
