NASA+ Launches on Netflix

NASA is set to broaden its digital footprint by launching its NASA+ programming on Netflix this summer, bringing the wonders of space directly to millions of viewers worldwide. The collaboration was announced on Monday as part of NASA’s strategy to engage and inspire a global audience with its space exploration efforts.

Rebecca Sirmons, general manager of NASA+, emphasized the agency’s commitment to sharing the story of space exploration with as wide an audience as possible, as mandated by the National Aeronautics and Space Act of 1958. The partnership with Netflix, which boasts a global reach of over 700 million users, aims to usher in a new era of innovation and exploration, allowing audiences to witness rocket launches, astronaut spacewalks, and live views from the International Space Station from the comfort of their homes.

NASA+ will continue to be available for free through the NASA app and website, maintaining its ad-free format. The agency’s broader efforts include leveraging video, audio, social media, and live events to connect with audiences worldwide, sharing its discoveries and achievements in air and space. Details on programming and schedules will be released as the launch date approaches.
