NASA's mission is to pioneer the future in space exploration and scientific discovery. NASA+ documentaries allow you to come along for the ride. It's free. It's on demand. And no subscription is required. Grab some popcorn and come along for the journey.
1. Planetary Defenders: This Is Not an Exercise
When a newly discovered asteroid posed a potential risk to Earth, a global planetary defense system was put to the test like never before.
2. Other Worlds: Europa
On Earth, where there is liquid water, there is life. Jupiter’s moon Europa has a liquid water ocean underneath its icy crust. Go behind the scenes with scientists as they explore Europa with NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope.
3. Cosmic Dawn
What does it take to gaze through time to our universe’s very first stars, galaxies, and light? “Cosmic Dawn: The Untold Story of the James Webb Space Telescope,” a NASA+ documentary, takes you behind the scenes of Webb’s journey, through the eyes of the dreamers who made it possible.
4. Our Alien Earth: The Lava Tubes of Mauna Loa, Hawai'i
Delve deep beneath the volcanoes of Hawai’i with four teams of NASA astrobiologists as they investigate how life might survive in the subsurface of other worlds.
5. Our Alien Earth: Greece
Dive alongside Dr. Richard Camilli and his team as they explore the undersea volcanoes off of the coast of Santorini, Greece.
6. Other Worlds: Titan
Titan is the only object in the solar system besides Earth with liquid on its surface, making it relevant for the search for life beyond Earth. But instead of water, methane and ethane make up Titan’s rivers and seas. Join scientists as they explore Titan with NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope and develop the upcoming Dragonfly mission.
7. NASA Explorers: Sample Return
How does it feel to watch your life’s work parachute through the atmosphere? Relive the joy and terror of the OSIRIS-REx sample return with NASA Explorers.
8. NASA Explorers: Space School
Before Jessica Watkins was an astronaut, she was a geologist. Now working on the International Space Station, Jessica and her fellow astronauts are preparing to explore the Moon and beyond.
9. Listen to the Universe
NASA is famous for beautiful space images, but did you know you can listen to them? Go behind the scenes with the team that creates “sonifications,” translations of data into sound, and learn how meaningful they are to people who are blind or low-vision.
10. Space Out!
You've explored Earth, tracked asteroids, visited distant worlds, and listened to the universe. It's time to relax with some tunes and images of Earth's beautiful Moon.
