Isn't this an APOD?
I can't find it on the APOD website. I'd like to make sure that they are giving credit, paying royalties, etc.

Can anyone confirm? I tried searching on "Blue sun", "false color", etc. with no luck (too many search results...)

Looks similar to a Stereo image of the Sun, see APOD: 2006 Dec 22 - The View from Stereo Ahead.Dougmeister wrote:I can't find it on the APOD website. I'd like to make sure that they are giving credit, paying royalties, etc.

Re: Isn't this an APOD?
I don't think there is any violation. NASA images are released without copyright, and can be used commercially or otherwise, with or without attribution. SOHO is a joint venture between NASA and ESA, and ESA is much more proprietary with their data than NASA. However, there's nothing in the so-called SOHO copyright notice (it isn't really a legal copyright notice at all- there seems to be no actual claim of copyright) that prevents commercial use of SOHO images. I doubt very much if SOHO could limit usage of released images (especially in the U.S.) even if they wanted to, and I don't see any evidence that they really care.Dougmeister wrote:Thanks.

What you can't do is use the agency logos, or give any indication that the agencies are endorsing your product. But these laptop and phone skins don't seem to do that.

Re: Isn't this an APOD?
In case someone else wants to use "Duty Free" images on a business venture (which APODs are), the Blue Giant Acer image cannot copyright by the manufacturer either. Legally anybody can copy, reuse or make knock-offs of their image - they have no legal claim to them.

Re: Isn't this an APOD?
Careful. APODs are not necessarily copyright free, or otherwise free to use. Those from NASA projects generally are, but many are the work of private individuals, or nongovernmental entities. You need to see the specific copyright information provided with each APOD to know if and how it can be used.Dr. Skeptic wrote:In case someone else wants to use "Duty Free" images on a business venture (which APODs are), the Blue Giant Acer image cannot copyright by the manufacturer either.
