Apple TV's alt-history sci-fi show, 'For All Mankind', began its fifth season on March 27 and will conclude with a finale after nine years following the Goldilocks asteroid heist in 2012. The showrunners and creators, Ben Nedivi and Matt Wolbert, discussed the evolution of the Mars colony 20-plus years after its founding and how it evolved into a home. They also noted that the time it took to get from Mars to New England was similar to the time on their show, which they found fascinating. The series is set to end in a finale, with a new generation emerging while the principal characters are enjoying their silver years. The creators also highlighted the importance of scientific accuracy and colonial inspirations behind the show.
