For All Mankind

S2 / Apple TV+, 19 Feb

Apple’s sci-fi drama flips history on its head by exploring a parallel universe where the Soviet Union was the first nation to put people on the moon, reinvigorating America’s emotional and financial investment in the space race. Fast-forwarding a decade to the early 1980s, the second season sees the Cold War threaten to warm up as American astronauts and Soviet cosmonauts vie for control of lunar resources. And the stakes couldn’t be higher: a dust-up on the moon could lead to nuclear conflict.
