Air and Space

USA USA

Air and Space konzentriert sich auf Luftfahrt, Luft- und Raumfahrttechnik sowie die Erforschung des Weltraums. Der Sender zeigt Dokumentationen über Flugzeugdesign, historische Missionen und die Wissenschaft hinter dem Fliegen. Einige Programme befassen sich mit der Entwicklung von Militärjets, Verkehrsflugzeugen oder Raumfahrzeugen, andere mit der Arbeit der NASA und privaten Raumfahrtunternehmen. Lehrreiche Segmente erklären Prinzipien wie Aerodynamik und Antrieb, und Archivmaterial wird gelegentlich genutzt, um Schlüsselmomente der Luftfahrtgeschichte zu veranschaulichen. Der Sender überträgt keine Nachrichten, Sport- oder Unterhaltungsprogramme; sein Inhalt ist überwiegend sachlich und richtet sich an Zuschauer, die sich dafür interessieren, wie Dinge fliegen und welche Technologie dies ermöglicht. Als in den USA ansässiger Sender behandelt er gelegentlich amerikanische Raumfahrtprogramme und Luftfahrtmeilensteine, der Umfang umfasst jedoch auch internationale Entwicklungen.

Zuschauer können den Sender über Standard-Kabel- und Satellitenfernsehpakete in den USA empfangen. Einige Episoden und abendfüllende Dokumentationen sind auf der
