NASA TV World Wide

[Pat Kilroy <pat.kilroy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Quite some time ago someone on this list asked about NASA TV in 
Europe, South America or Australia.  I don't know if the availability 
has been resolved since.  But in the mean time I came across what 
follows.  Although "reflectors" are not on every continent, there 
should be no reason why one *anywhere* in the world with Internet 
access cannot enjoy the program to some extent now.

I think NASA TV is available via RealPlayer as well, although I'm 
not sure if parts of it are necessarily broadcast in real time or 
"near" real time.  

You can get the CU-SeeMe video conferencing software for your Mac or 
PC at http://cu-seeme.cornell.edu/.  A camera is NOT required to 
*watch*.
