NASA’s US Aerospace Administration began broadcasting videos from the International Space Station on the Internet.
Unfortunately, it is possible to look at the Earth and space from orbit only when the astronauts are sleeping or resting - the rest of the time the MKS transmitters are necessary in their work.
Shooting is an external camera MKS. What is happening inside the station, it was decided not to show, so as not to transform the lives of its residents on a reality show and not violate their right to privacy, reports Associated Press.
When the crew of the ISS is resting, Internet users can watch the Earth and the starry sky through the eyes of astronauts - from a height of 350 km. over the planet. The rest of the time is shown a screensaver that shows the current position of the station, as well as NASA news about events in space.
Previously, the aerospace control daily daily broadcast live television from the station with comments from the space center in Houston. Now this program will also be available on the NASA website .
To calculate when astronauts go to sleep, you need to remember: on the ISS UTC time is used.
