If they're the Landsat/Blue Marble images that we use as the "rest of the world" layers where we don't have detailed PhotoMaps, then they are NASA data (see http://www.nearmap.com/legal/copyright<http://www.hw009i.nearmap.com/legal/copyright>). It's pretty easy to spot the difference, as in this location: http://www.nearmap.com/?...@-36.244965,147.034836&ll=-36.244965,147.034836&z=13&t=h&nmd=20101117 ...Our PhotoMaps to the west, Landsat to the east.
I believe that you can use the NASA data, but you should check the NASA pages (http://landsat.gsfc.nasa.gov/, http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/BlueMarble/) to be sure.
