Washington: NASA and Netflix have joined hands to realise the American space agency's plan to team up with a streaming service to bring space a little closer to home.
"Starting this summer, NASA+ live programming will be available on Netflix", NASA said in a statement Monday.
NASA+ will now give audiences another option to stream rocket launches, astronaut spacewalks, mission coverage, and breathtaking live views of Earth from the International Space Station (ISS).
"The National Aeronautics and Space Act of 1958 calls on us to share our story of space exploration with the broadest possible audience," said Rebecca Sirmons, General Manager of NASA+ at the agency's headquarters in Washington.
"Together, we're committed to a Golden Age of Innovation and Exploration – inspiring new generations – right from the comfort of their couch or in the palm of their hand from their phone", she added.
Goal and Objective
Through this partnership, NASA's work in science and exploration will become even more accessible, allowing the agency to increase engagement with and inspire a global audience in a modern media landscape, where Netflix reaches a global audience of more than 700 million people.
The agency's broader efforts include connecting with as many people as possible through video, audio, social media, and live events.
"The goal is simple: to bring the excitement of the agency's discoveries, inventions, and space exploration to people, wherever they are", NASA said.
Additional programming details and schedules will be announced ahead of launch.
NASA+ remains available for free, with no ads, through the NASA app and on the agency's website.
