In the wake of Shepard Fairey's debacle with the AP over the rights to the image he used as reference/inspiration for his wildy popular Obama poster, I wanted to share a list of Public Domain Licensed images, in this case, astronomy.

I've compiled a list of beautiful, inspiring astronomy images that all have a Public Domain License.
