While file is taken from NASA TV, all of the in-flight video comes from SpaceX, and there is no indication this material is freely licensed. NASA regularly hosts non-NASA material without notice (Roscosmos, other companies, etc), and I believe our precautionary principle policy should apply here.

Keep: The indication that the material is freely licensed is clearly in the Media Usage Guidelines, which state that "NASA occasionally uses copyrighted material by permission on its website. Those images will be marked copyright with the name of the copyright holder." Therefore, we have a clear indication that the content, if not freely available, should be clearly marked. The next question is whether NASA is truly careful about attributing content. I argue that NASA indeed is very cautious, and thus the precautionary principle does not apply.
Whenever NASA hosts non-free content based on other agencies, it marks it as a product of that agency. For example, this image is credited directly to Roscosmos and this is credited to Boeing. This is not exclusive to images; this ULA video is credited correctly to ULA, for example. This crediting standard is applied to SpaceX media] as well, which is directly applicable in this case. Media from NASA is either marked with a NASA photographer or else unmarked.
It is now clear that NASA does indeed attribute content, images and videos, that were produced by other agencies and companies. Because of NASA's attribution within the image gallery on both images and media, the precautionary principle does not apply. There is not a reasonable and "significant doubt" that the file is not free, i.e. the copyright status is not unclear because it is highly unlikely that NASA, who typically ensures proper attribution of all content, uploaded this video without the knowledge and permission of SpaceX.

Deleted: This is clealy a Spacex video. While NASA certainly has permission to use it, there is no evidence that it is PD or that NASA has the right to freely license it. .     Jim . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 14:08, 28 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
