Question by ciamalo: What’s the copyright law regarding pictures taken with the Hubble and other space telescopes?
Are the Hubble, ESO, ESA, NASA and Spitzer telescopes’ deep-space photos protected by copyright, or are they open to use because they were obtained with government funds? What are the pertinent rules of usage? If permission is needed, where would that be obtained?.

How Can the universe be 78 billion LY across? I explain that in this article: www.deepastronomy.com There is also a link to a science paper on the topic, that paper actually states 96 billion LY. arxiv.org
