Now Stream Live from space

Nasa experiment will pave the new wave in live streaming

NASA astronauts Christina Koch, Jessica Meir, and Andrew Morgan appeared live from the International Space Station today at the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) 2019 conference in Los Angeles in a proof-of-concept test that could pave the way for using the cloud to stream video live from the Moon and Mars.

The interactive exchange between space and Earth expanded on a workflow first established for the first-ever live 4K stream from space in 2017, and represented the first use of cloud resources for data storage and video origination for streaming from space.

NASA is seeking innovative ways to reduce the cost and complexity of live streaming from space as it prepares to send the first woman and next man to the lunar face by 2024 through its Artemis architecture.
