no cost
I think the head of a CEO somewhere just exploded.
and every conservative congresscritter, for some reason. ‘couldn’t this be done in the private sector’
CEOs are usually not relying as much on taxes. That’s why it’s free, this is a way to justify tax usage by developing public outreach.
Walmart CEO definitely relies on taxes, food stamps, WIC, and other programs. ISP CEOs took tax money for Internet upgrades and did nothing. Multiple bailouts for business that they squandered on stock buyback.

With this being a free service, I feel like calling it NASA+ is a bit misleading. To me, I feel like the “+” indicates a paid, premium service. If it wasn’t for the title of this post that clarifies that it’s free, I probably wouldn’t have even considered installing the app based on the name, alone.
Either way, this is great news! I’m probably gonna check this out once it’s available. I wish they’d have a release date, though. The official page just says “Coming soon”.

Ever since Canada created the elegantly named “Canadarm”, NASA and Canada have been besties.
To say nothing of possibly the greatest Astronaut to fly to the Space Station: Chris Hadfield
The US federal science agencies are generally pretty happy with sharing things. If it’s free to the US public, it’s free to the world and I love that. Best possible use of my tax dollars.
(We also share weather and hurricane data with the Caribbean countries, for example. None of them could individually afford what the US is doing, so I’m happy we share.)
I posted on Lemmy about needing recommendations for movies to watch on shrooms…and then minutes later stumble across this article.
Talk about perfect timing, lol.
This is really starting to feel like a perfect replacement for that…other website.
We know it’s ad-free and zero cost, but will it be DRM-free as well?
Most NASA stuff is published under non affiliation free use license - you can do what ever you like with it.
you can do what ever you like with it.
RIP to the videos on Uranus.
…or about 3% of the military budget. Quite a bargain.
If it’s called NASA Plus, how is it free? The “plus” means it goes a step beyond their free content and into a paid tier.
Don’t get me wrong this is absolutely fantastic I adore NASA and space, but they’re just be some hidden cost? Otherwise it wouldn’t be a streaming service called NASA Plus, right?
