Air and Space

Stati Uniti Stati Uniti

Air and Space si concentra su aviazione, ingegneria aerospaziale ed esplorazione spaziale. Il canale trasmette documentari sulla progettazione di aeromobili, missioni storiche e la scienza del volo. Alcuni programmi esaminano lo sviluppo di jet militari, aerei di linea commerciali o veicoli spaziali, mentre altri trattano il lavoro della NASA e di aziende aerospaziali private. I segmenti educativi spiegano principi come l'aerodinamica e la propulsione, e talvolta vengono utilizzati filmati d'archivio per illustrare momenti chiave della storia dell'aviazione. Il canale non trasmette notizie, sport o programmi di intrattenimento; i suoi contenuti sono principalmente non-fiction e pensati per spettatori interessati a come volano le cose e alla tecnologia che lo rende possibile. In quanto canale con sede negli Stati Uniti, copre occasionalmente i programmi spaziali americani e le pietre miliari dell'aviazione, ma l'ambito include anche sviluppi internazionali.

Gli spettatori possono accedere al canale tramite i pacchetti standard via cavo e satellite negli Stati Uniti. Alcuni episodi
