NASA is set to broadcast its first-ever live stream from the International Space Station (ISS) on Twitch. Astronauts Don Pettit and Matt Dominick will discuss life aboard the ISS and microgravity research during the February 12th stream. Viewers can submit questions to the astronauts.
NASA is planning to host a live Twitch stream next week from the International Space Station – its first from the ISS. The stream, which takes place on February 12th at 11:45AM ET on NASA ’s Twitch channel, will feature Don Pettit, an astronaut currently on the ISS, and Matt Dominick, who returned to Earth from the ISS in October.
“This Twitch event from space is the first of many,” Brittany Brown, director of the Office of Communications Digital and Technology Division at NASA Headquarters in Washington, says in the post. “We spoke with digital creators at TwitchCon about their desire for streams designed with their communities in mind, and we listened. In addition to our spacewalks, launches, and landings, we’ll host more Twitch-exclusive streams like this one.
