Beyond exclusive videos like shuttle launches, there will be a daily ISS update and plenty of file footage, all in MPEG-2 encoded HD. Media, cable and satellite providers should all have access so if it's not yet a channel in your area, you probably know who to call, or you can check out the webpage to see what direction you'll need to point that dish in.

It's a small subset of the 150-hours of footage that made the leap to HD for the Discovery Channel's production, but like we said, it's free. Honestly, some of the footage drawn from the older end of the 50-year span was less than stellar in picture quality, but that's a limitation of the source material. The special will air on August 8, 11 and 12 at 9AM EST. If your carrier sends you the bits, let us know how it looks in the comments below.

A 24 hour concert it's not, but NASA's celebrating Earth Day in its own way, airing an hour of HD footage collected from various trips in space on NASA TV. A silent edition of the broadcast hit Friday morning, which will repeat between 6 a.m. and 8 a.m. Monday April 21, and on repeat from 6 a.m. until 8 p.m. on Earth Day, April 22 featuring commentary from NASA scientist Dr. Justin Wilkinson. You can catch the stream online, or the NASA TV channel if you have it, we hear that in HD you can totally see your house from there.
