New Stream Platform, NASA+
NASA promised that its incoming streaming service will not require a paid subscription. In addition, it will be available for both iOS and Android.
According to the associate administrator for Office of Communication, Marc Etkind, the goal is to put space on demand within the viewer's fingertips.
"Transforming our digital presence will help us better tell the stories of how NASA explores the unknown in air and space, inspires through discovery, and innovates for the benefit of humanity," Etkind stated.
The NASA+ is expected to be integrated on media players like Roku, Apple TV, and Fire TV.
NASA Continues Efforts for Digital Visibility
Aside from launching a new streaming platform, NASA also assured that the agency will continue to connect additional agency websites and multimedia libraries to streamline all the information across the whole NASA programs.
"NASA+ videos showcases our discovery programs in an interdisciplinary and crosscutting way, ultimately building stronger connections with our visitors and viewers," said Nicky Fox, associate administrator, Science Mission Directorate, NASA Headquarters.
