Nowhere is this severe blow to national pride felt more acutely than NASA, where the top brass vow to never again be beaten by the Soviets and begin planning a permanent settlement on the moon. The consequences ripple out even further: then-President Richard M. Nixon ends the Vietnam War in 1970 to redouble U.S. space-race efforts, while Massachusetts senator Edward Kennedy scores some key political points out of Nixon’s humiliation.
One of the next Apollo missions discovers ice on the moon, raising the stakes even further and leading to the establishment of the base known as Jamestown. Danielle, Ed Baldwin , a square-jawed former Navy flier; and his buddy Gordo Stevens , husband to Tracy, become its first tenants. Ed and Gordo are haunted by their decision not to land on the moon while part of Apollo 10, even though it was the safe play.
Season one spans 1969 through late 1974, but season two anchors itself in 1983. Margo is now head of Johnson Space Center and mentor to headstrong Mexican immigrant Aleida , while Molly is going blind after surviving a solar-radiation storm during the first episode.
