• Nonetheless, the show consistently rewards both sets of viewers by brilliantly blurring the line between reality and alternate history.
• It tells a compelling story wherein the Soviet Union beat the US to land on the Moon and, consequently, the space race never ended.
• For All Mankind begins in an Apollo era transformed by the inclusion of women, characters of colour and LGBTQ+ protagonists.

Astronaut fiction

• For All Mankind mines a rich vein of astronaut screen fiction, starting with the now-forgotten black-and-white TV show Men Into Space (1959).
• Science and fiction blurred in countless pulp tales, B-movies, magazine features, novels and comics.
• David Bowie sang about a “space oddity” in 1969 (later covered by astronaut Chris Hadfield, who filmed the first music video in space), while in 1977, Star Trek actress Nichelle Nichols was tasked by Nasa with recruiting a more diverse field of astronaut candidates.

Nixon’s women

• The stereotypical all-American hero, the show says, is likely prone to anger-management issues, substance abuse and infidelity.
• In their place, the series uses an alternate history to reconstruct a better, more inclusive and even more diverse vision of Nasa.
• In the third episode of season one, set in the 1970s, Nasa seeks to counter Russia’s landing of a woman on the moon by recruiting women pilots of its own.
• It encapsulates what makes For All Mankind potentially the greatest show on television right now: meaningful human tales told against an interplanetary backdrop.
