A groundbreaking 4K live stream from space has already captured both a solar eclipse and a massive hurricane—and it’s freely accessible for everyone to watch.
This technology was created by Sen, a UK-based startup specializing in space-based video streaming. The livestream is available online, thanks to Sen’s high-resolution 4K camera system, called ‘SpaceTV-1,’ which is installed on the International Space Station.
Unlike the grainy space footage we’ve seen in the past, this Livestream allows viewers to watch Earth in real-time and ultra-HD through an inter-satellite relay link.
The stream features three camera views: one offering a panoramic look at Earth’s horizon, another pointing straight down with a resolution of about 60 meters per pixel, and a third aimed at the space station’s Harmony Module forward-facing docking port.
“This livestream represents the launch of the business,” said Charles Black, Sen founder and CEO.
Already, the camera has delivered breathtaking images of a solar eclipse and an immense hurricane.
Where can I watch the livestream of space?
Sen is streaming its footage on YouTube, which can be found on the Sen channel and on the Sen website.
The stream is free for all users, but the company also offers subscription options for no ads, downloads and usage.
In April, audiences tuned in to see the Moon’s shadow sweep across Earth as it briefly obscured the Sun.
Then, in October, viewers watched in awe as Hurricane Milton’s powerful, swirling clouds churned toward Florida from the ocean.
These cameras transmit live footage from space for over 20 hours a day, with only short interruptions due to temporary signal losses between satellites.

Sen was established in 2014 by Charles Black with the mission of ‘democratizing’ space through video.
The company aims to provide an unfiltered and unbiased view of Earth, allowing the public to access live footage anytime without relying on NASA, governments, or affluent individuals for first-hand space imagery.
Perhaps for this reason, the live stream remains free for all to watch and is available on platforms like YouTube as well as Sen’s official website. For those seeking additional features, the company offers subscription options that remove ads, enable downloads, and allow for extended usage.
“The focus is on building that into a profitable live stream over the next year,” Black added.
Scientists are optimistic about the many applications this technology could offer for planetary research and real-time environmental monitoring. They intend to use data from the livestream to study extreme weather events, observe atmospheric patterns, and track climate changes as they happen.
