Set aside all your ‘plus’ streaming services. This subscription-free one from NASA is about to lift off.

    Now this actually looks pretty cool! They’re obviously trying to play off the increased hype around streaming services with the name and presentation, but that’s perfectly fine if it gets the public more interested in astronomy and the exploration on space. Big plus that it’s coming to Roku as well, that’ll save me some trouble.

    As long as it’s free to the public, I’m here for it. They’re a government agency, if they try to make this a paid subscription, we need to revolt immediately.

      I’d be fine with an option to pay. I agree it shouldn’t be mandatory but it’d be a nice way to give nasa money directly.

        I really wished they had put legal marijuana tax to NASA. The slogan would have been “Get high so we can go higher”

    NASA TV has been a mainstay on my devices since I started cordcutting. I guess this is a rebrand of NASA-TV to NASA+, right? Either way, if you didn’t know about it and like space and cool engineering things, you’ll like the channel.

      From the first paragraph:

      And best of all, NASA says it will be “ad-free, no cost, and family-friendly”

      Looks like you’re one of those who just assumes they know what a story’s about after glancing at the link title…
