NASA Plus’ live programming also includes “astronaut spacewalks, mission coverage, and breathtaking live views of Earth from the International Space Station.” Although you do need a subscription to use Netflix, the NASA Plus content will be a free addition and won’t add to the cost of that subscription.

NASA plans to launch its live-streamed programming on Netflix -- featuring rocket liftoffs, astronaut spacewalks and live views of Earth from the International Space Station -- starting this summer.

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.
