Re: Nasa TV in the future?

WOW_Dan...I wlll. That said, the drunken Jesus Freak channels seem to be winning in my tiny little poll. That's...heartening.

Wow. Not in a good way, either. I'll submit my request...but I've seen the howling. It's worth a shot. I'd like fer Mom to see New Horizons scan Pluto in realtime.

I put up, rather than shut up - gotta say, the link could use some proofreading. Anyone else wants things like NASA tv - I'm literally listening to crickets - throw in there somewhere. This one is free.

The main reason for the religious channels is because of regulations requiring a certain number of "public interest" channels. I do believe that NASA would count as one such channel as well, but it is not widely available. WOW doesn't even have anywhere near the number of shopping and religious filler channels as the satellite providers do.

A lot of religious channels also pay for the rights to be on cable and satellite. [Which is the opposite of channels like ESPN, Disney, MTV, AMC, etc.. that all charge cable companies for carriage].
