Yeah, that really came out of nowhere. NASA having essentially 4 missions in a row go to shit?
I'm saying the Russians will help out and there will be another time jump at the end of the season 12/14/2019 9:51:05 PM

I've been watching and enjoying this, only a few more episodes left but if Apple wants their streaming service to succeed it needs to be more readily available. I have two smart TVs and Apple TV+ isn't available on either of them. I have to watch on my laptop in my living room which I don't care about, but I feel like the average person isn't gonna want to do that. 2/24/2020 9:06:44 AM

Season 2 has grown on me a lot. Even though they aren't in space too much, theyre doing a good job with these earth-based storylines I think. It does seem like their target audience is older people though... 4/3/2021 12:39:13 AM

Season 2 ending was phenomenal. They tease season 3 too, could be the best yet. 4/25/2021 6:21:58 PM

Finished S2 last week. Great show and pretty good about being scientifically accurate too. It does make me said that the Apollo program was canceled in 1973 though . 7/1/2021 2:54:44 PM

I have started watching this and so far I am enjoying it. The pacing of the first four episodes has been all over the place.
I do like that they aren't creating a bunch of back home sexual drama, it all seems realistic and grounded. 7/12/2021 9:52:45 AM

I watched Seasons 1 & 2 over the past couple weeks. I enjoyed it. I'm nostalgic for the glory days of the Space Program when I wasn't even alive. Can't explain it.
It's interesting to see some of the real history mixed in out-of-sequence.
- Reagan elected in 1976 instead of 1980 - There really was an Apollo-Soyuz mission with a handshake in space and an androgynous docking system https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo%E2%80%93Soyuz - The Soviets really did shoot down Korean Air 007 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_Air_Lines_Flight_007 - There really was a Buran shuttle program https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buran_%28spacecraft%29
The Soviets / Russia are definitely the champs at shooting down commercial flights. 3/20/2022 11:50:34 PM

Also new plot lines for real people like Deke Slayton and Sally Ride.
I guess that despite their many other disasters, they caught the O-Ring problem before Challenger blew up in this continuity.
I also guess none of what I previously posted is going to be new info for space nerds or NASA employees like Wraith.
Yo, what's the latest delayed expectation for Artemis crewed moon landing? 3/21/2022 9:46:11 AM

Hard to believe. They should at least try to keep this borderline believable. 3/21/2022 1:16:17 PM

Artemis I just rolled out for wet dress rehearsal. Pictures all over the place on that. I haven't worked SLS since 2018, but I put 8 years of work into it so pretty pumped about it. In terms of next person walking on the moon? That would be Artemis III. 2024 was never going to happen, I think the official expected launch date is now 2025 but even that is optimistic. 3/22/2022 2:04:29 PM
