NASA Channel

[jdomutz]

I would like persons who kow about miss the NASA Channel to provide a word (or two) why U-Verse should add this program.  It is available on Direct TV but not U-Verse.

[jdomutz]

I am watching live astronaut activities onboard the ISS on www.nasa.gov, via my laptop, but would rather watch it on my TV in the living room.  Anyone got the same issue?

[ralph7up]

I like the NASA channel as well.  I would gladly trade it for one of the current shopping channels or even the SOAP channel.

[jdomutz]

How can we generate some interest on this subject?   The last space walk is happening now, and I'm forced to watch on a 2 x 3" inch window on my laptop.  Watching space walks in real time proves that fact is much more stranger than fiction.  I can't belive I left Direct TV for this ...  There is plenty of fluff on the program list, can't they put this outstanding channel on U-Verse?

[jdomutz]

The shuttle undocked today ans will be landing Wednesday. When will U-Verse allow us to tune in to this amazing event?  NASA-TV lovers unite!

If you look around in your Local Peg Channels  on Ch 99. Your might be lucky to find Nasa TV. For the SF/SJ Bay Area I Found  Nasa TV on one of Santa Rosa PEG Channels. Also In Palo Alto The Sanford PEG Channel Carry  The Research Channel.

Public access channels are available for use by the general public. They are usually administered either by the cable operator or by a third party designated by the franchising authority.

Educational

access channels are used by educational institutions for educational programming. Time on these channels is typically allocated by either the franchising authority or the cable operator among local schools, colleges and universities.

Governmental

access channels are used for programming by organs of local government. In most jurisdictions, the franchising authority directly controls these channels.

I would like the NASA channel too, and this has been discussed before and acknowledged by someone from AT&T.  This was way back on August 1st, and still nothing.

Count me in as wanting the NASA channel on U-Verse, too. I saw the last few launches on HDNet, as they picked up the NASA channel feed and showed it in high definition. It was way too cool.

We are already paying for the NASA channel through our tax dollars. U-verse should be able to add it for free. So AT&T...what's the hold-up?

[golferinga]

I also would like to see the NASA channel. I had it with Comcast and enjoyed watching the launches. I hope it can be added to U-Verse soon.

=======================================
didn't really look for that channel when setting up my favorites,but your right, Directv offers it, & you can go to the web site & see it on computer,but NASAtv would be nice on U-verse

[jdomutz]

Please add the NASA channel to AT&T U-Verse programming.  PLEASE ??? - I miss it badly !!!

[garywhite]

I'd like to also vote for the NASA channel.  It is not only very informative but carries news that you never see on standard commercial TV.  I gave up the Dish Network for U-verse and they had 24/7 coverage from NASA.  In addition it has many hours of live action during launches as well as live coverage of activities on board the ISS.

 Nasa Yes

[showtime48 ACE - Guru]

i wonder if one of you guy's or gal's from houston could call nasa public affairs or programming and see when or if uverse is gonna start carrying the nasa channels...

[RCSMG ACE - Master]

Thats a good idea because they could be in the process of preparing to be launched on Uverse.  Maybe dotting the I's and crossing the T's. imo

Next time I'm out near Clear Lake, I'll stop in and have a talk with them (NASA).

thanks...

[spd2demun ACE - Master]

Sure, I'll tell Mission Control you said 'hi'.

[showtime48 ACE - Guru]

don't tease me. if i had 20 million i'd take a trip to the space station...

[spd2demun ACE - Master]

For a couple thousand, you could spend it on a drive and visit Space Center Houston!  I mean thousands just for the gasoline.  You would probably enjoy it, especially the secret location tours of the day...you never know where you'll be going...sometimes Mission Control, or the anti-gravity training water tank, the mock-up space station...and the gift shop!

[showtime48 ACE - Guru]

believe me if i had 20 mil for a space station trip i'd have been to nasa already. spent a month at cape canaveral in 1981 or was it kennedy in 1981...

[spd2demun ACE - Master]

I think it was Kennedy by then...and now that you mention it, I remember your telling me about that.  Do they let you go behind the scenes in FL?

To all NASA TV lovers:

Tonight, I watched live coverage of the Phoenix Lander safely landing on Mars.  I saw the first images of its solar panels deployed and some imagery of the surface.  It was exciting.  Unfortunately, seen not on AT&T U-Verse, but on my laptop.  More images are due Monday morning.

The Space Shuttle will be departing May 31st for the ISS.  This mission will add another segment to the station and will be exciting also.

If you miss watching these on your TV set as many of us did when we were subscribing to other providers, please send yet another note thru this forum to let U-Verse execs know how badly we want (and miss) NASA TV in our TV viewing.

Thanks, John
