The space-focused streamer is launching a free ad-supported streaming TV (FAST) channel on Prime Video to help more viewers learn about the science and exploration that the organization is best known for.

The channel has a wide range of content for all space science lovers to enjoy. It carries live launch coverage, as well as original documentaries about NASA’s most famous missions, family-friendly content that viewers of all ages can enjoy, and more.

“Streaming NASA+ on multiple platforms allows the agency to more efficiently share its missions, from launching astronauts to the International Space Station, to going behind the scenes with the team that defends Earth against asteroids, to showcasing new, high-definition images of the cosmos,” NASA acting associate administrator Wes Brown said. “NASA provides an up-close look at how the agency explores the secrets of the universe for the benefit of all by ensuring content is easily accessible and widely available to the public.”

NASA+ is always free to stream outside the Prime Video ecosystem, as well. Viewers can stream the service free on the NASA website, or download the NASA app and watch it on platforms like Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, and Roku if they want to stream it with connected TV devices. The service first launched in 2023, and has been delighting fans of space exploration ever since.
