Tonight at 8p EST/5p PST National Geographic goes where it has never gone before, it is going Live From Space via the International Space Station.
For two hours will be given a tour of ISS from the astronauts (Flight Engineers US’s Rick Mastracchio and Japan’s Koichi Wakata) who currently call the place home and learn what they do in Space. We will also see Planet Earth from their vantage point. This is an unprecedented look of what it is like to be up there and what happens when you travel outside of our planet.
No matter how much you care about Space, this is a must watch special because this is not a place we get such an in-depth look at very often. So let NatGeo beam you up tonight at 8p and see what we look like from all the way up there.

We love our tuna fish sandwiches and spicy tuna rolls, and tonight at 9p on National Geographic’s Wicked Tuna you will see how they catch the fish we love to eat.
In Gloucester, Ma several fisherman compete in a challenge to see who could catch the most and largest tunas. Sounds like it would be easy, but you will see how difficult it really is on the show. Each boat has their own technique to catch their prize and each one will work. Once they capture their tuna and weigh it, it is now time to bring it in to see how much it is worth per pound. If they get a really good catch, it is worth up to $20,000. So now you understand why they do this every day.
Wicked Tuna shows how competitive the world of fishing for tuna is, and who knew that is this way? You will enjoy watching just how competitive these fishermen get and they are wicked competitive.

Fall in love with Brain Games tonight |

Valentine’s Day is coming up on Friday and tonight at 9:30p on Nat Geo, Brain Games looks into love and attraction.
Brain Games is an interesting show that shows us how our brains can manipulate what we see and hear. Tonight we learn why we see certain people as more attractive than others and how to tell who really is a couple.
The show starts off by asking us to rank 5 people of one sex by attractiveness and then do the same with the opposite sex. Once that is done, you will find out why most people feel the same way as you do. The show also does a test to see what body type we are attracted to and you find out why.
Then we will see 4 couples where only one of them is actually married and the other 3 are actors. We will have to determine which is the real one. After you make your guess, the truth will be revealed and we will find out how to tell if a couple really is one. It is actually really cool what happens to couples the longer they stay together.
On that note, the next test is to figure out which couple is the closest to being on the same wavelength. Will it be the one on a blind date, the newlyweds who have been married for a year or the ones who’ve been married for 25 years. The answer will surprised you.
Just like the rest of the show that really makes you think about all your brain really does and how alike we all are because of that fact.

Killing Kennedy is a masterpiece! |

Tonight at 10p Killing Kennedy debuts on the National Geographic channel and you don’t want to miss this incredible two hour docudrama.
Killing Kennedy starts off during the last few months of 1969. During that time, John F Kennedy (Rob Lowe) wins his party’s vote to run for the President of the United States. Meanwhile at that same time Lee Harvey Oswald (Will Rothhaar) is renouncing his US citizenship and defecting to Russia. For the next 4 years their lives will go in different paths, but on November 22, 1963 their paths will collide and neither one of them will live to see December 1963.
What happens in those four years before they die is told in such a way that you will be glued to your television sets like people were almost 50 years ago to the day. You will learn the possible motive Oswald had for shooting President Kennedy and how this shooting could’ve possibly been stopped if more people had paid attention to the warning signs.
It isn’t only about these two men, it is also about the women that stood by their sides until that fateful day. Jacqueline Kennedy (Ginnifer Goodwin) is the supporting wife, who stands by her husband’s side and the man she loves is the most powerful man in the world. Marina Oswald (Michelle Trachtenberg) is a woman who lives in Russia, meets, and marries the wrong man. When he decides he wants to return to America, she is forced to leave her life behind to be with the man she married. She is alone America and stays with her husband because she is rightfully afraid of him. Something that is very evident one day in late November 1963.
While most movies that cover the Kennedy Assassination, only cover JFK’s story and/or the days leading up to and following his death. This telemovie covers the years leading up to his murder and the days following his last breath. Because of that, it is a different take on a story we know so well. I was so amazed by how intriguing this movie was that I could barely blink because I didn’t even want to miss a split second of it. Plus it will amaze you how perfectly Rob Lowe captures John F Kennedy’s essence, you will forget that is Lowe playing him and think that one of our greatest Presidents has come back to life. When it comes to Rothhaar, he was the bad man you loved on Last Resort, but in this role he makes you hate him as Oswald should be hated.
If you have any interest of what happened to JFK on November 22, 1963, then you must watch Killing Kennedy tonight. I am promise you will not be disappointed.
