more science and learning channels

i would like roku to add more science, history and learning channels please. i love the channels "modern marvels" and "smithsonian pluto" as well as the ones that play programs about the military, history and animals but roku is missing other channels dedicated to anything about astronomy, space, NASA, venomous animals (snakes, scorpions, spiders, insects, marine animals, etc.) and other similar subjects that i can learn more about. i hope that roku will add these channels and more soon. thank you.

    It may not be apparent to many users that the various channel owners create, submit to Roku, and maintain the specific Roku-compatible versions of their apps that run on the Roku operating system.  They also specify the Roku models they wish to support and the geographical regions in which their channel apps may be offered.  Roku just provides the platform on which these submitted channel apps run.
        
    If you want to have a specific channel that's not available for your Roku model and region, you need to convince the channel owner to create a Roku-compatible version of their app, specify where it is to be available, agree to Roku's conditions, and submit it to Roku.
