Think of it as a newspaper writer doing a story, or a photographer. As long as they have permission of the person or persons involved, there cannot be as lawsuit as long as those involved said they do not mind, for istance, having their photo taken or quotes put in print. And since Mark is an employee of NASA, like Dave said, they (may) have certain stipulations their employees might have to follow. If no permission is given (from Mark or NASA) and it was found out, that's where the trouble could be. Pehaps Mark does work that NASA doesn't want certain people to find out about - who knows!!! lol. I guess to make everyone happy, you should get permission just so there are no ifs, ands, or buts about anything. My guess is, as long as Mark's permission is given VIA him, then it's ok, hence there won't be any NASA lawyers lol.
