The space agency's content is already available for free, but this partnership takes it to a much wider audience.

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The United States' National Aeronautics and Space Administration ( NASA) and Netflix are set to partner for the streaming of live space exploration through NASA+. Netflix viewers will be able to witness rocket launches, astronauts in space, mission coverage, and live views of Earth from the International Space Station ( ISS ).

Netflix is reaching for the stars. The streaming giant announced Monday that it "is teaming up with NASA to bring space a little closer to home" by streaming live launches into subscribers’ homes later this summer.
