I've been aching for a reason to post an Artemis photo here in this newsletter and Anil Dash gives me that excuse as he explains - at length - why NASA photos have ended up on Flickr. Long story short - after being acquired by SmugMug they created the Flickr Foundation to preserve public photos for the next 100 years. I use Flickr a lot - I have (at the moment) 45067 photos from around the world, free and open for any non-commercial use. At some point I'll just commit them to the public domain, with the hope that at least a few of them endure through time, a record of these crazy days.
