Unified NASA Web Experience

The beta website is already available for an early preview, and users are encouraged to visit and provide feedback.

Jeff Seaton, the chief information officer at NASA's headquarters in Washington, expressed enthusiasm about the opportunity to enhance the user experience, making NASA's information more accessible, discoverable, and secure.

"Our vision is to inspire humanity through a unified, world-class NASA web experience," said Seaton.

"NASA's legacy footprint presents an opportunity to dramatically improve the user experience for the public we serve. Modernizing our main websites from a technology standpoint and streamlining how the public engages with our content online are critical first steps in making our agency's information more accessible, discoverable, and secure."

The updated websites, nasa.gov, and science.nasa.gov, will offer a connected, topic-driven experience with a common search engine and optimized publishing capabilities. This consolidation of information will provide a one-stop-shop for the agency's missions, research, climate data, Artemis updates, and much more.

NASA is committed to continually improving the beta site based on valuable feedback from its visitors. The full launch will include content from various popular agency websites, ensuring easy access to the wealth of NASA's information scattered across the digital landscape.

Ad-free NASA+

The real star of the show, however, is the upcoming NASA+ streaming platform, set to launch later this year. This ad-free, no-cost, and family-friendly service will provide users with access to NASA's Emmy Award-winning live coverage and exclusive views into the agency's mesmerizing missions.

Marc Etkind, associate administrator of the Office of Communications at NASA Headquarters, summed up the exhilarating prospects of NASA+. He revealed that this transformative digital presence will allow NASA to better share the incredible stories of exploration, discovery, and innovation that unfold in the vastness of space.

NASA+ will be accessible on a wide range of major platforms, providing users from around the world with seamless access. Whether you're using iOS or Android devices, tablets, or popular streaming media players such as Roku, Apple TV, and Fire TV, NASA+ will be available at your fingertips.
