| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | Astroblast is the space station and home of six animal characters in Bob Kolar's book series of the same name. The space station is managed by an overconfident and exuberant commander, Comet the Dog. The crew includes: Sputnik, the pig; a very knowledgeable reader Haley, a rabbit; an athlete and Comet's true peer Radar, the monkey, who is somewhat self-involved; Jet, a silent alligator whose gestures and expressions are his mode of communication; and Sal, a congenial three-eyed octopus who runs the counter in the space station cafe, the Smoothie Shack. While the space station supports the missions of a bizarre and diverse array of aliens, the Smoothie Shack is the hub of social interaction for the galaxy. There is always something happening at Astroblast, and everyone on the crew has plenty to learn to keep the community happy and on an even keel. This program aired on the station's main digital channel. |

This may include information on any other noncore educational and informational programming that you aired this quarter or plan to air during the next quarter, or any existing or proposed non-broadcast efforts that will enhance the educational and informational value of such programming to children. See 47 C.F.R. Section 73.671, NOTES 2 and 3. | One or more episodes of children's programming that was preempted during the quarter was not rescheduled. The Digital Core Programming Summary section of this report would not permit the station to include preemption reports for such unrescheduled preemptions, and FCC Staff has advised that no preemption report for such unrescheduled episodes is necessary. On June 12, 2016 NBC Network aired breaking news coverage of the tragedy in Orlando. This coverage resulted in the preemption of the following children's programs: Teen Kids News episode #1340 1100a-1130a, and Noodle Doodle 1130a-1200p (which was going to air on that date and time in its second home). |
