no cost
I think the head of a CEO somewhere just exploded.
Space: The final free tier.
It's 1:30AM and you have me cackling like a witch here.

and every conservative congresscritter, for some reason. 'couldn't this be done in the private sector'
CEOs are usually not relying as much on taxes. That's why it's free, this is a way to justify tax usage by developing public outreach.

With this being a free service, I feel like calling it NASA+ is a bit misleading. To me, I feel like the "+" indicates a paid, premium service. If it wasn't for the title of this post that clarifies that it's free, I probably wouldn't have even considered installing the app based on the name, alone.
Either way, this is great news! I'm probably gonna check this out once it's available. I wish they'd have a release date, though. The official page just says "Coming soon".
Feels very much like they're just following the trend of a bunch of streaming services that just add a + to the end. As long as it's good though I don't think it matters much
Strikes me as tongue-in-cheek.

NASA+ will be available on most major platforms via the NASA App on iOS and Android mobile and tablet devices; streaming media players such as, Roku, Apple TV, and Fire TV; and on the web across desktop and mobile devices.
What's the betting it won't be on LG's WebOS though? 😭
My deepest sympathies to all 3 of you.
Who will think of all the palm pre's out there

We know it's ad-free and zero cost, but will it be DRM-free as well?
I'm not sure if US government IP is legally allowed to be DRM'd.
Not only is it not allowed to be DRM'd, "US government IP" is itself an oxymoron: stuff published by the government is Public Domain, so it doesn't even count as "intellectual property [sic]" to begin with.
Most NASA stuff is published under non affiliation free use license - you can do what ever you like with it.

I wouldn't be surprised if a majority of the content is already freely downloadable from somewhere...
