Best Space Podcasts for Kids
Real NASA stories and space-adventure fiction, for kids curious about rockets, planets, and everything beyond Earth. Age ranges, release schedule, and episode length are below so you can match one to your child.
NASA's Curious Universe
An official NASA podcast with real access to the people and missions behind the agency's exploration of space, from rocket launches to the search for life beyond Earth.
REACH: A Space Podcast for Kids
Answers real kid-submitted space questions with interviews from experts at NASA, the Adler Planetarium, and other institutions, plus at-home experiments. Explainer format rather than a story.
The Space Programme
A fiction serial about a small Scottish island that suddenly becomes home to a new space program, and the local kid chosen to be the world's first child astronaut. Drama rather than an explainer, told in a full weekly series.
Deep Space High: Kids Guide to Space
A fictional series set at an intergalactic school, following a mixed class of aliens, robots, and humans exploring the universe together. Very short episodes, more silly adventure than science lesson.
Space Cadets: Story for Kids
Two friends get accidentally rocketed into space while queuing for a hotdog, and end up on missions across the universe. Silly, fast-paced fiction rather than anything factual.
Otter Space
Two mismatched sea otters searching for new friends end up having to save Earth from an alien civilization that has outlawed playing. Odd premise, but a genuine space-adventure story underneath the otters.
