Today's mildly infuriating internet thing:
The official NASA #APOD API does not return a credit line/license for most images that are actually copyrighted or shared under an attribution license.
Even worse, the documentation states that images that don't return a copyright field are under public domain, which is almost never the true!
I hope NASA will fix this soon:
