Slated for launch in November 2000, Space.TV will offer a mix of space and science media utilizing various webcasting technologies aimed at today's growing broadband audience. The service will offer viewers a mix of programmed and on-demand content.

Publisher and founder of SpaceDaily.com, Simon Mansfield said, "Space.TV is a long term strategic move, with the Space.TV domain name communicating precisely what the website offers - namely continuous space media content in a television style format.

Although today's web media is an exciting format that has revolutionized publishing, most people continue to enjoy television style content that requires only that a person select their station of choice after which they can sit back and relax.

The Internet is fast going broadband with millions of households in the US, Canada, Japan, Australia, and throughout Europe now having access to high-speed Internet services - while at a corporate level, high-speed access is now almost universal.

The combination of these consumer and corporate marketplaces will ensure that Space.TV is launched into a healthy marketplace with the potential of reaching millions of people the world over.

"From the outset we will be focused on broadband users with programs initially available in a high bandwidth version first," said Mansfield.

"As a long time web surfer with years of experience in accessing the Internet via dialup modems, it is plainly obvious that low-end connections don't work and to pursue such markets would be a misallocation of resources," added Mansfield.

Space.TV is now in discussions with companies in the US, Europe, Australia and Japan to develop the site's content and further announcements will be made shortly.

Space.TV is a part of the Space Media Network that offers a sophisticated mix of space and science content aimed at industry, academic and the general public.

It's flagship product - SpaceDaily.com, is the only profitable Internet space media site with revenues of $1.5 million forecast for the 2001 financial year.

Based in Sydney, Australia, SpaceDaily.com has a proven track record of publishing successful and profitable Internet sites. The company's key to success has been to pursue an incremental growth strategy in line with actual revenue flows.
