Netflix users can now enjoy more than just movies and shows—they’ll soon be able to watch live space missions, including rocket launches and spacewalks, right from the comfort of their homes.
And the best part? It’s completely free with your regular Netflix subscription.
NASA recently announced that content from its NASA+ streaming platform will now also be available on Netflix.
NASA+ is already a free, ad-free service available through NASA’s website and mobile apps. But this new move will expand its reach to a much larger audience via Netflix.
What You’ll Be Able to Watch
Now, through Netflix, you can tune into:
Live rocket launches
Spacewalks from the International Space Station
Real-time views of Earth from space
Docking missions and other NASA events
For example, the Progress 92 Cargo Ship is scheduled to launch on July 3 and dock on July 5, and both events will be streamed live.
Why NASA Partnered with Netflix
According to Netflix, the goal of this partnership is to inspire younger audiences and bring them closer to space science and technology.
The platform hopes to create more interest in real-time space exploration by making it more accessible and exciting.
This collaboration marks a new step for Netflix, which has streamed live events like stand-up comedy and WWE in the past—but this is the first time it will feature live coverage of real space missions.
No Extra Charges
There’s no need to pay anything extra. All NASA+ content will be included in your existing Netflix plan, with no additional fees.
The internet is already buzzing with excitement, with many saying this partnership could open a new chapter for space content on entertainment platforms.
