This picture is being used in Wikipedia's article for the television show Cosmos: A Personal Voyage (PBS). Although it is subject to copyright, the editors of Wikipedia, among them myself (Necessary Evil) in particular, feel that it is covered by US fair use laws because:
- It is a low resolution still image;
- It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the related product in any way
Further, we believe our use of the image is fair because it is not being used merely to decorate the related article, but rather:
- Aids commentary on the plot outline;
- Poignantly illustrates the related episode
Particularly because:
- It illustrates the significant moment which characterises the article in question.
