Everything That Happened Between For All Mankind Seasons 2 & 3
For All Mankind season 3 is set in 1992, roughly a decade after season 2's Apollo-Soyuz mission, and a lot has happened in the years since then. The show's decades-spanning plot stems from a different outcome of the 1969 Moon landing, in which the Soviet Union set foot on the lunar surface before a single American, setting off a long and deadly competition between nations in space. Over its first two seasons, the show developed a captivating narrative defined by an acute balance of thrilling action and heartwrenching drama. The series' previous character work andambitious overarching plot make For All Mankind season 3's story the series' most compelling yet.
Humanity has now its sight set on Mars as its next extraterrestrial conquest, and NASA and the Soviet Union are joined in this new space race by a private company known as Helios. In the wake of Gordo and Tracy's sacrificial deaths at the end of season 2, For All Mankind's remaining characters carry the weight of grief at the start of season 3 as they live through Earth's most technologically advanced era. As the pursuit of the Red Planet intensifies, veteran astronauts Ed Baldwin (Joel Kinnaman) and Danielle Poole (Krys Marshall) gear up to reenter the cosmos, while new For All Mankind characters Danny Stevens (Casey Johnson) and Kelly Baldwin (Cynthy Wu) look to prove themselves outside Earth's orbit. For All Mankind season 3 also fixates on the high-profile career developments of Ellen Wilson (Jodi Balfour), Karen Baldwin (Shantel VanSanten), and Margo Madison (Wrenn Schmidt), which follow a colossal series of historical events in the preceding years.
