To clear up licensing issues, change to an image used on the Wikimedia
Commons [1]. I actually grabbed a slightly different, higher
resolution image directly from NASA [2], which is linked from their
Columbia page [3]. Using this image as an example of cutting edge
technology is ammusing, because NASA deprecated the system in 2013. A
few details [3]:
Location: NASA Advanced Supercomputing facility at Ames Research
Center
Peak (2008) specs:
Nodes: SGI Altix 3700 and 4700
Processors: Intel Itanium 2
Cores: 18,824
Memory: 27 terabytes
Theoretical performance: 82.9 teraflops
Operating system: SUSE Linux Enterprise
NASA's media usage guidelines [4], reproduced in full:
NASA still images; audio files; video; and computer files used in
the rendition of 3-dimensional models, such as texture maps and
polygon data in any format, generally are not copyrighted. You may
use NASA imagery, video, audio, and data files used for the
rendition of 3-dimensional models for educational or informational
purposes, including photo collections, textbooks, public exhibits,
computer graphical simulations and Internet Web pages. This general
permission extends to personal Web pages.
This general permission does not extend to use of the NASA insignia
logo (the blue "meatball" insignia), the retired NASA logotype (the
red "worm" logo) and the NASA seal. These images may not be used by
persons who are not NASA employees or on products (including Web
pages) that are not NASA-sponsored.
NASA should be acknowledged as the source of the material except in
cases of advertising. See NASA Advertising Guidelines.
If the NASA material is to be used for commercial purposes,
especially including advertisements, it must not explicitly or
implicitly convey NASA's endorsement of commercial goods or
services. If a NASA image includes an identifiable person, using the
image for commercial purposes may infringe that person's right of
privacy or publicity, and permission should be obtained from the
person. Any questions regarding application of any NASA image or
emblem should be directed to:

Linking to NASA Web Sites
NASA Web sites are not copyrighted, and may be linked to from other
Web sites, including individuals' personal Web sites, without
explicit permission from NASA. However, such links may not
explicitly or implicitly convey NASA's endorsement of commercial
goods or services.
NASA images may be used as graphic "hot links" to NASA Web sites,
provided they are used within the guidelines above. This permission
does not extend to use of the NASA insignia, the retired NASA
logotype or the NASA seal.
NASA should be acknowledged as the source of the material except in
cases of advertising. See NASA Advertising Guidelines.
Restrictions
As a government entity, NASA does not license the use of NASA
materials or sign licensing agreements. The agency generally has no
objection to the reproduction and use of these materials (audio
transmissions and recordings; video transmissions and recording; or
still and motion picture photography), subject to the following
conditions:
* NASA material may not be used to state or imply the endorsement by
NASA or by any NASA employee of a commercial product, service, or
activity, or used in any manner that might mislead. Please see
NASA Advertising Guidelines and Merchandising Guidelines for more
information.
* It is unlawful to falsely claim copyright or other rights in NASA
material.
* NASA shall in no way be liable for any costs, expenses, claims, or
demands arising out of the use of NASA material by a recipient or
a recipient's distributees.
* NASA does not indemnify nor hold harmless users of NASA material,
nor release such users from copyright infringement, nor grant
exclusive use rights with respect to NASA material.
* NASA material is not protected by copyright unless noted. If
copyrighted, permission should be obtained from the copyright
owner prior to use. If not copyrighted, NASA material may be
reproduced and distributed without further permission from NASA.
* If a recognizable person, or talent (e.g., an astronaut or a noted
personality engaged to narrate a film) appears in NASA material,
use for commercial purposes may infringe a right of privacy or
publicity. Therefore, permission should be obtained from the
recognizable person or talent. If the proposed use of the NASA
material could be viewed as a commercial exploitation of that
person. However, if the intended use of NASA material is primarily
for communicative purposes, i.e., books, newspapers, and magazines
reporting facts of historical significance (constitutionally
protected media uses), then such uses will generally be considered
not to infringe such personal rights.
* Some NASA audiovisual material may incorporate music or footage,
which is copyrighted and licensed for the particular NASA
work. Any editing or otherwise altering of the work may not be
covered under the original license, and therefore would require
permission of the copyright owner.
* NASA audiovisual material may include visible NASA identifiers
(e.g., the name of the vehicle and the NASA Insignia or Logotype
in photographs or film footage of Space Shuttle vehicles). Use of
such materials is generally non-objectionable, provided the NASA
identifiers appear in their factual context.
I think that the recognizable NASA logo on the picture itself, the
fact that I'm showing the picture inside a link to NASA's Columbia
page, and this commit message should satisfy "NASA should be
acknowledged as the source of the material".
