You can finally see a live feed of your Google Nest cameras on your TV

 Use a Chrome-cast and Google TV to stream live video from the new Nest Cams and Nest  Doorbell.




Finally, Google is adding an outdated feature to its new Nest cameras. Starting this week, you can use a Chromecast with Google TV to broadcast the video feed from all of your Nest cameras and video doorbells to your TV.

“What?” You query. Couldn't you have done this already? Yes and no, I suppose. The largest screen in your home could display the video feed from previous Nest cameras, including the Google Nest Doorbell (wired), the now-discontinued Nest Cams, and the camera within the Nest Hub Max.

However, none of Google's more recent cameras could stream to Chromecast devices, as I pointed out in my evaluation of the new Nest Cam (indoor, wired).

As stated in the blog post, "All Nest Cams and Nest Doorbells will be supported, including our latest products that were released in 2021: the Nest Cam (outdoor or indoor, battery), Nest Cam (inside, wired), Nest Cam with floodlight, and Nest Doorbell" (battery)

We don't yet know if it will function on other Chromecast and Google TV devices because Google only lists the more recent Chromecast with Google TV as compatible.

According to Google, the new integration will start to be implemented this week. Nothing needs to be enabled in order to turn it on. Just make sure your cameras and Chromecast are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. You may ask the Google TV voice control to "show me the front door camera" by tapping the Assistant button. You may also say, "Hey Google, show me the front door camera on my TV," to your Nest speaker or smart display.


To fully achieve feature parity between its new Nest cameras and its older Nest cameras, Google only needs to fulfill its commitment to include a web portal option.

SpaceX completes 300th Falcon booster landing during Starlink mission

  S paceX completed a Falcon 9 launch, highlighted by the company’s 300th booster landing to date. The Starlink 6-53 mission also marked the 30th orbital launch from Florida in 2024. Liftoff from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station happened at 6:17 p.m. EDT (2217 UTC). The 45th Weather Squadron forecast a greater than 95 percent chance of favorable weather at liftoff. The Falcon 9 first-stage booster supporting this mission, tail number B1078, made its ninth launch on this flight. It previously launched NASA’s Crew-6 mission to the International Space Station, USSF-124, and five Starlink flights. About eight and a half minutes after liftoff, B1078 landed on the SpaceX droneship, ‘Just Read the Instructions.’ In addition to this being the 300th Falcon booster landing overall, it was the 79th landing for JRTI and the 233rd droneship landing to date. The 23 Starlink satellites onboard this mission add to the 5,851 currently in orbit, according to astronomer a...

NASA’s Newest Spaceplane: Dream Chaser Tenacity Arrives at Kennedy Space Center

  SOURCE - https://www.space.com/dream-chaser-space-plane-tenacity-tour.html Sierra Space’s Dream Chaser Tenacity, part of NASA’s initiative to enhance commercial resupply missions to the International Space Station, arrived at Kennedy Space Center for its first mission. After rigorous pre-launch testing, it is scheduled to deliver 7,800 pounds of cargo using a ULA Vulcan rocket. As part of NASA’s efforts to expand commercial resupply in low Earth orbit, Sierra Space’s uncrewed spaceplane arrived at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida ahead of its first flight to the International Space Station (ISS). The Dream Chaser spaceplane, named Tenacity, arrived at Kennedy on May 18 inside a climate-controlled transportation container from NASA’s Neil Armstrong Test Facility in Sandusky, Ohio, and joined its companion Shooting Star cargo module, which arrived on May 11. Pre-Launch Testing and Preparation Before arriving at Kennedy, the spaceplane and its cargo module underwent vibration ...
