With this being a free service, I feel like calling it NASA+ is a bit misleading. To me, I feel like the "+" indicates a paid, premium service. If it wasn't for the title of this post that clarifies that it's free, I probably wouldn't have even considered installing the app based on the name, alone.

Either way, this is great news! I'm probably gonna check this out once it's available. I wish they'd have a release date, though. The official page just says "Coming soon".

Feels very much like they're just following the trend of a bunch of streaming services that just add a + to the end. As long as it's good though I don't think it matters much

Strikes me as tongue-in-cheek.

The release date is November 8th.

It may mean, NASA content plus other content they feel is appropriate to the service.

I don't usually think "paid service" when I see the plus symbol added to something.
