Underknown is excited to announce the launch of Popular Science on The Roku Channel in Canada.
The channel brings viewers a dynamic lineup of science programming, from live coverage of rocket launches by NASA, SpaceX, and Blue Origin, to original content from leading science creators on YouTube. With more than 50 million combined followers, partners like Hacksmith, Complexly, and Underknown’s own shows What If, How to Survive, and Aperture will anchor the schedule, with new hours of programming added regularly.
“Our mission has always been to bring smart, inspiring content to audiences everywhere,” said Steve Hulford, Co-Founder and CEO of Underknown. “The Roku Channel is one of the top destinations for FAST, and this launch marks an important step in expanding Popular Science to new viewers across Canada and beyond. We’re looking forward to reaching audiences in the US, UK, and Mexico through our AVOD offering as well. We thank our partners at Roku for making this possible.”
Since 1872, Popular Science has been one of America’s most trusted science publications, breaking down complex ideas in an accessible and engaging way. The Popular Science channel continues that legacy by bringing the wonders of science to life in an approachable format for streaming audiences.
The Popular Science channel is licensed under Recurrent Ventures, a digital media company that produces and distributes premium content for passionate audiences across multiple platforms.
“For over 150 years, Popular Science has worked to make the world of science understandable and accessible,” said Annie Colbert, Editor in Chief of Popular Science. “Partnering with Underknown allows us to expand that mission into FAST, where audiences are growing rapidly. This launch on Roku highlights the incredible work Underknown is doing to bring Popular Science into new formats and new markets.”
