Neil deGrasse Tyson’s StarTalk media network has brought the FAST channel Neil deGrasse Tyson’s StarTalk TV to Pluto TV.

Neil deGrasse Tyson’s StarTalk TV marks the company’s first-ever live linear channel, fusing science with pop culture and humor for 24/7 content.

StarTalk TV showcases the expertise of deGrasse Tyson, a renowned astrophysicist and Hayden Planetarium director, alongside comedic co-hosts, scientists and guest celebrities such as Mayim Bialik, Jason Sudeikis, Jack Black and Lindsey Vonn.

StarTalk TV can be found under Pluto TV’s new History + Science category. StarTalk teamed up with global creator company Jellysmack on the channel.

“We are thrilled to bring StarTalk to Pluto TV,” said deGrasse Tyson. “At StarTalk, we transform complex science into fun and accessible content for everyone—especially for those who might think science is neither interesting nor relevant to their lives. We look forward to sharing our unique cosmic perspectives with the Pluto TV audience as we continue to bring the universe down to Earth.”

“Welcoming the StarTalk TV channel into our streaming orbit gives our viewers the opportunity to explore content that inspires curiosity and fosters a deeper understanding of the universe,” said Amy Kuessner, executive VP of programming at Pluto TV. “This newest addition reinforces Pluto TV as not only a source of endless entertainment but also a wellspring of education and knowledge to everyone, anytime, anywhere.”

“We are thrilled to grow our partnership with StarTalk and join forces with Pluto TV to bring educational and entertaining content to Pluto’s leading free streaming platform,” said Stefanie Schwartz, Jellysmack’s chief business officer. “StarTalk TV is a great example of how Jellysmack is developing and scaling today’s most engaging creator brands into the digital media empires of tomorrow.”
