The sky on
your birthday.
“The NASA Television Channel” was a movie, or a file NASA no longer keeps, so there's no still picture of it to put on this card.
See it on NASA's siteNASA Television is available through various platforms, including cable, web pages, and today's APOD. It broadcasts rocket launches, real-time scientific results from deep space probes, press conferences, and interviews with scientists and astronauts. A broadband connection and Windows Media Player are recommended for optimal viewing.
