I wonder if they got or even need permission for the "NASA" imprinted on the side.

They got it. According to TFWiki:
"In a first for the Transformers brand, Sky Lynx is one of two Earthrise space shuttle toys developed with an official license from NASA (the other being the Micromaster Astro Squad), and bears NASA logos in his deco. Also as part of that partnership, Sky Lynx was given a new fictitious Space Shuttle name, visible below the cargo bay door hinges. He is... the Magnificence."

In fact, I found out the working relationship between Hasbro and NASA goes further. NASA holds an annual contest for US school students to showcase ideas for scientific inventions, and Peter Cullen presents the winning award!
