## Overview

When you first log in to the AIM console, the current week's schedule appears. The schedule displays a week's worth of scheduled items (Sunday through Saturday) divided into 7.5 hour increments with 30 second time slots. One hour shows span two program slots and one interstitial slot. Each available time slot is designated by an empty row with the timestamp displayed in blue text. The timestamp is clickable, allowing you to view all pods for that specific time slot for a two-week period. 

A schedule can be viewed by [day](https://docs.pbs.org/space/AVAIL/5637175/Schedule#How-to-view-schedule-by-day), [week](https://docs.pbs.org/space/AVAIL/5637175/Schedule#How-to-view-schedule-by-week), or [time](https://docs.pbs.org/space/AVAIL/5637175/Schedule#How-to-view-schedule-by-time) and items can be scheduled up to a year in advance.
