The Polaris station will welcome some distinguished personal visitors before its grand opening… Even “For All Mankind” is not above a little product placement.įlight Director Margo Madison (Wrenn Schmidt) indulges in a quick SlimFast breakfast before starting her day… Also in the news, space tourism has began in earnest with the “Polaris” space hotel–a rotating Stanford torus-like space station undertaken by former restauranteur Karen Baldwin ( Shantel VanStanten), along with her new husband Sam ( Jeff Hephner). Climate change numbers worldwide are falling, thanks to increased use of fusion power, as mined from helium-3 on the moon’s surface. NASA and the Russians are also gearing up for the Mars launch window in 1996 ( the one exploited by NASA’s real-life robotic Pathfinder mission), and the Soviet Union has yet to fall ( as it did in 1991). The Beatles are gearing up for a reunion concert ( as John Lennon survives in this universe). Following the bloody shootout at Jonestown colony, the moon is now divided between the West and the Soviet Union. The third season opens with its ‘news recap’ segment ( narrated by “Star Trek: Enterprise” veteran Linda Park) who brings us up to speed with the developments in this alternate reality since we left off somewhere in the 1980s in season 2. I had to write about “Polaris” right now. Written by Moore, Matt Wolpert, Ben Nedivi, and directed by Sarah Almeida, “Polaris” is simply too good to wait for my planned season-end recap, as I was planning to do with this chaptered series, which proves serialized sci-fi can work ( even if it’s been hit-or-miss with Star Trek, of late). The third season opener, “Polaris,” is available now for streaming, and it nothing short of a white-knuckled disaster movie in space. As the series draws ever closer to our own present, the divergences are becoming more pronounced, though some historical events, technologies, and even a few pop culture touchstones are surprisingly intact ( the movie “ALIENS” still happens, for example). Many 21st century technologies, such as videoconferencing, smartphones, and tablets appear a decade earlier, albeit in slightly clunkier forms. On the plus side, global warming is being offset by clean fusion power plants, which use mined helium-3 imported from the lunar surface. Its moon also hosted a bloody Russian-American conflict, and is now separated into Western and Eastern halves the moon is a new Berlin Wall in space. This version of the late 20th century has yielded its own setbacks it’s racked up far more spaceflight fatalities than ours. The site of last season’s conflict that left the moon a “New Berlin” in space, with American and Soviet halves. “For All Mankind” is the future I was promised as a little kid… that future that never was. This universe sees moon colonies, planned manned voyages to Mars and even a large ( privately-run) space hotel, a la 1968’s “2001: A Space Odyssey” all taking place before the end of its late 20th century. Set in an alternate universe that diverged from ours when its own Soviet Union beat the United States to the moon, prompting an even more ambitious manned space race that never petered out, as did our own, after Apollo. Yes, it has strong competition ( “Severance,” “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds”)–this is a great time to be a sci-fi TV fan–but for overall consistency, the first two seasons of this series have been thoroughly engrossing. Moore ( “Deep Space Nine” the “Battlestar Galactica” reboot) is my favorite science fiction series going on right now.
