NASA’s live programming, including rocket launches, spacewalks and views of Earth from space, will begin streaming on Netflix this summer.

NASA said the move is part of its effort to reach a global audience, according to a press release. The agency noted that the content will remain free and ad-free on the NASA app and website, where it already has live programming.

NASA+ launched in 2023 as a way to give the public easier access to space content.

“The National Aeronautics and Space Act of 1958 calls on us to share our story of space exploration with the broadest possible audience,” Rebecca Sirmons, general manager of NASA+, said in the release.

NASA did not disclose financial details of the deal.

The partnership comes as there has been a surge in commercial rocket launches, led by Elon Musk’s SpaceX. SpaceX has had 81 launches in the first half of 2025, according to Space Explored. It also continues to be the only U.S. company with a spacecraft that’s certified to bring astronauts to the International Space Station.

Meanwhile, NASA has been supporting missions in low-Earth orbit.

Shares of Netflix, which has more than 700 million users, have been trading at all-time highs. The streaming service is up almost 51% since the beginning of the year.
