NASA has always been quite forward-thinking, always down to change the way we explore space. This time, however, it’s not about rocket launches or spacewalks. Instead, the agency is bringing space to our screens, for free, with the launch of its new streaming service, NASA+.

The service will apparently be completely free when it launches

Set to go live on November 8, NASA+ promises an ad-free experience packed with an exclusive look at NASA’s live shows, which have been recognized with Emmy Awards for their high production quality. Viewers will also be treated to a curated selection of original series that highlight the agency’s groundbreaking missions.

For a bit of context, other streaming platforms like Disney+ charge around $7.99 per month for their basic plan, while Curiosity Stream offers a selection of science and history documentaries for about $2.99 a month. In contrast, NASA+ is completely free and requires no subscription, giving everyone access to the wonders of space.

But the streaming service is just one part of NASA’s broader digital transformation. The agency is also overhauling its app and flagship and science websites to create a more cohesive and informative user experience. These updates are expected to align with the launch of NASA+ and further enhance access to NASA’s vast array of multimedia content.
