Sea Dragon 17 has launched.

It's been nearly half a century since the last human stood on the lunar surface.

Houston is go for separation.

Many have been itching to return to the moon and to go even further.

But space doesn't make it easy.

I'm Chris Marshall, and I'm your host of For All Mankind, the official podcast.

I play astronaut Danielle Poole on the Apple TV Plus original series.

Even though I play an astronaut on TV, I don't actually know that much about space.

For the next 10 episodes, I'm going to learn as much as I can from the people who do.

We're going to hear from space experts and former astronauts about what really goes down

beyond our atmosphere.

So I remember I woke up on my first night in space, and I felt like I was standing on my head.

And from For All Mankind's cast and creators about bringing this alternate history of the space race to the screen.

We're telling the story of America losing something and everyone winning because of that loss.

And of course, we'll dig into the drama from the show, both Earthside and in space.

And here is this silent, extraordinary, intact area that is suddenly just sullied by footprints everywhere.

Like, take your trash off my moon.

So, strap in. It's going to be a wild ride.
