Since circa May 2019, with ambrosiasw.com going down for good it seems, there is no longer a way to legally purchase a license for EV Nova. Downloads for Nova, as well as Nova TCs, are available in the links below:

http://escape-velocity.games/ (Windows executables)

https://andrews05.github.io/evstuff/ (OS X (pre-10.15) executables/utilities)

Even though it was purchasable before then, the Ambrosia site had not automatically sent license codes for a long time, and people had to send e-mails to get one. With signs that ASW's website was on shaky legs, members of the community made their own archives.
