NASA has officially announced its free streaming service, NASA+.
The agency revealed that NASA+ will be available for iOS, Android, web and a majority of streaming boxes such as Roku, Fire TV and Apple TV, while its content will include the agency’s Emmy award-winning live coverage and brand new original video series. “From exoplanet research to better understanding Earth’s climate and the influence of the Sun on our planet along with exploration of the solar system, our new science and flagship websites, as well as forthcoming NASA+ videos, showcases our discovery programs in an interdisciplinary and crosscutting way, ultimately building stronger connections with our visitors and viewers,” Nicky Fox, associate administrator, Science Mission Directorate, NASA Headquarters, shared.
“Our vision is to inspire humanity through a unified, world-class NASA web experience,” added Jeff Seaton, chief information officer at the agency’s headquarters in Washington. “NASA’s legacy footprint presents an opportunity to dramatically improve the user experience for the public we serve. Modernizing our main websites from a technology standpoint and streamlining how the public engages with our content online are critical first steps in making our agency’s information more accessible, discoverable, and secure.”
“Transforming our digital presence will help us better tell the stories of how NASA explores the unknown in air and space, inspires through discovery, and innovates for the benefit of humanity,” Marc Etkind, associate administrator, Office of Communications, NASA Headquarters, said.
NASA+ is set to release in the coming months and can be downloaded via the NASA government website.
