The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (Nasa) has announced<\/a><\/strong> its plans to launch a streaming service \u2014 Nasa+ \u2014 later this year.<\/p>\n

The ad-free, no-cost streaming service will broadcast live coverage of future launches, documentaries, and a new exclusive original series.<\/p>\n

“We’re putting space on demand and at your fingertips with Nasa’s new streaming platform,” said Marc Etkind, associate administrator in the office of communication at Nasa’s headquarters.<\/p>\n

Nasa says the streaming service will be available on most major platforms, including Android, iOS, Apple TV, Fire TV, Roku, and the web.<\/p>\n

The company is also revamping its flagship and science websites.<\/p>\n

It has already released a Nasa beta website<\/a><\/strong>, and it will be home to news about the agency’s missions and research, climate data, Artemis updates and more.<\/p>\n

The updated nasa.gov and science.nasa.gov website will feature a “topic-driven experience” with a common search engine, integrated navigation and a modernised set of web tools.<\/p>\n

Jeff Seaton, chief information officer at Nasa headquarters, said the agency wants to provide a world-class Nasa web experience.<\/p>\n

“Modernising 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,” he said.<\/p>\n

Nasa hasn’t specified a launch date for the Nasa+ streaming service, with the agency saying it will be available later this year.<\/p>\n
