WASHINGTON — NASA has started beaming live video from just outside the International Space Station, but there’s a catch: The online feeds are available only when the station’s crew is asleep or off duty.

That’s because NASA has only four communications links for sending data to Earth and wants to have all of them free for day-to-day operations while the crew is awake and working, agency spokesman Kelly Humphries said.

NASA also opted not to show video from inside the cramped space station to give astronauts privacy. “It would be like Big Brother looking over your shoulder 24/7,” he said.
