Apollo 25

## Mission Patch

Patch of originally planned mission

**Apollo 25** was a spaceflight mission by NASA launched in late December 1974. The crew included Molly Cobb as commander, Tracy Stevens as CSM pilot, and Dennis Lambert as mission specialist. Originally, the mission was planned to repair an astronomical satellite in Earth's orbit.

## History

Apollo 25 was launched by a Saturn IB that was ready on Pad 39-B for its planned mission to repair an astronomical satellite. However, due to Apollo 24 stuck in orbit with a defective flight control computer (FCC), the mission was repurposed to deliver a new Saturn V FCC and repair the S-IVB of Apollo 24. The primary mission was cancelled and it launched 2 days after 24 and performed a rendezvous in low Earth orbit.

At the end of the repair EVA, the S-IVB of Apollo 24 accidentally ignited, killing astronaut Harrison Liu and dragging the still-tethered Apollo 25 CSM with it. Molly Cobb managed to free the command module from the runaway S-IVB, but lost her grip and was left adrift in orbit. Although ordered to return without saving Molly, Tracy Stevens managed to pilot Apollo 25 to rendezvous with Molly Cobb and retrieve her.

The three astronauts then landed safely back on Earth.

2003 Soviet coup d'état

* KGB Second Chief DirectorateW
* Militsiya police forcesW

* Fyodor Korzhenko installed as new Soviet President
* Protests across the Soviet Union against the new hardline government
* Many arrested by police and security
* Unknown number casualties

In 2003, a **coup d'état** took place in the Soviet Union, when the communist hardliners forcibly seized control of the country from Mikhail Gorbachev, who was Soviet President and General Secretary of the Communist Party at the time.

## History

The coup, led by Politburo member Fyodor Korzhenko and hardliners within the Communist Party, was also backed by the police forcesW and the Second Chief DirectorateW of the KGB. They opposed Gorbachev's reform program, were angry at the rise of capitalism within the Soviet Union, and were skeptical of the country's growing ties with the West, especially in the aftermath of the Mars-7 Alliance and the end of the Cold War.

The hardliners dispatched KGB agents, who detained Gorbachev. His disappearance led to civilian protests and brutal crackdowns in response by the police. In the days following the coup, the Army initially retook control in some areas and sought to restore Gorbachev to power. However, an agreement was later reached between the KGB and the Army, forcing Gorbachev to step down in a bloodless transfer of power to Korzhenko.

Following the coup, the KGB and hardliners installed their own leadership in key state institutions, including Roscosmos, where Irina Morozova became director, succeeding Lenara Catiche. Margo Madison was asked by Morozova to work under her following the coup.

## Behind the scenes

* In OTL, a similar coup attempt by hardliners against Gorbachev took place in August 1991 but failed, with Gorbachev being restored to power quickly after. However, the 1991 coup destabilized the Soviet Union and Gorbachev's authority, contributing to the collapse of the Soviet Union 4 months later.

Commander **Cho Byung Ho** is a North Korean ujunaut and the commander of the North Korean delegation on Happy Valley in 2003.

## History

When Danielle Poole saw Lee Jung-Gil walking through a doorway on her first day back on Happy Valley in 2003 and wanted to greet him, Commander Cho reminded Lee to act properly. Later that day, they were both at her meeting with the key department heads of the station.

After Lee helps Ghost Ops by giving them access to the security feed that the North Koreans have set up in the base, Cho discovers that the feed now has static on the screen. Investigating the issue, he finds the device planted by Lee to allow for this. Cho and Lee visit Danielle to complain about the device which has a NASA serial number on it, with Lee translating for Cho. Cho demands to know why the americans have been spying on them, but accidentally lets slip that they themselves have been spying. After Danielle says that she will look into it, Cho insists on arresting and questioning Miles Dale, the only outsider to have had access to the North Korean module. Danielle, who could understand Miles' name, is also intrigued and begins a search of her own. Cho speaks to Lee, disappointed in Danielle's seeming lack of concern, and calls her a useless tool of the decadent capitalist system, insisting that he will investigate himself.

Cho is able to discover that Miles has been entering an elevator but doesn't reemerge on any of the floors, deducing that he must be exiting on the restricted lower levels of the base. After his deduction is proved correct, He discovers the Ghost Ops control room, although he is hit over the head by Lee. After a short fight, Lee manages to get him in a chokehold causing him to pass out.

Due to his deteriorating medical state, Lee takes him to the medical bay. Although Gerardo Ortiz-Niño argues against this, as Cho has seen his face and could report him. His condition is explained as being the result of a cargo loader accident. Lee then assumes command of the North Korean module. Later giving sanctuary to the other Ghost Ops members when they are discovered by the security team. It is unknown if Cho recovers from the attack.

### Achievements

PEZ Champions in 2012, 2013, 2015, 2017, 2018, and 2019 Polish Cup in 2013, 2014, and 2018DOTY 2013 (Tadeusz Lorkowski)

## Roster

### Field 6

Mark Marcoman (CD)

> "Damn Poles!" - Ben Lee
>
>

Zbijak287 is the strongest and the richest dodgeball team in the PEZ, and in the whole world. It was formed in 2009 and it hadn't received much attention back then due to Olecie being formed in Gdansk year before, but then it became the best dodgeball team.

The game developer, Tadeusz Lorkowski, is playable in this team as the captain Bauer Defensor.

## History

Zbijak287 wasn't the first dodgeball club in Gdańsk as the Olecie have been formed one year before. 287 weren't the best in the PEZ either - the newly-formed Natalia were way more powerful, as they even got a February against them in their first clash. Their full potential was unleashed in 2012, when they won the PEZ championship, and then the newly built City of Dodgeball had been purchased. After Tadeusz Lorkowski's class won the Sopoti Primary School Dodgeball Championship, Tadeusz got accepted there and he even led the 287 to victory in a completely new chapionship. After that, Tadeusz got the Dodgeballer of the Year award.

## Trivia

* Zbijak287 is one of the earliest teams the developer ever created - in 2012, when the dev wasn't even into programming yet.
* The name of this team literally translates to 'Dodgeball287' from Polish.

## Notes

1. ↑ Accoring to IMDb, Coral Peña's birthday is 27 March 2001 (age 22), although this doesn't seem to be right. According to Wikipedia (referring to a 2022 *Cosmopolitan* article in which she is presented as being 29), she was born in 1992 or 1993. Many other online sources state 27 March 2001 as her birthday, like IMDb, but they have probably taken it from there.
Her real birthday and age remains unknown by now.
Constitution

The **Space Shuttle *Constitution*** is a NASA spacecraft, one of ten in its fleet of first generation Space Shuttles.

## History

The spaceplane was put into service sometime between late 1981 and early 1983, like the other 9 of its class.

On May 20, 1983, *Victoria* was in OMDP in Palmdale, together with the shuttles *Atlantis* and *Victoria*.

*Constitution* is still in service in the 90s and used for missions to Jamestown.

## Notes

There is some discrepancy concerning this shuttle on the mission status board seen in episode 3x02 between 43:00 and 43:05. The ship appears to be located at KSC's Orbiter Processing FacilityW (OPF) for maintenance after Jamestown 224 (STS-94-S) and in lunar orbit for Jamestown 229 (STS-95-D) at the same time. Also, the two mission numbers (224/229) seem to be too close. One of those missions is most probably supposed to be operated by another shuttle.

## Behind the scenes

In the real word, the Space Shuttle *Enterprise* was originally planned to be named *Constitution*, but renamed after the White House received hundred of thousands of letters from Star Trek fans to name the ship after the starship USS EnterpriseW from the TV series. Therefore, a Space Shuttle *Constitution* never existed in reality.

Carl Cartwright

**Carl Cartwright** is an astronaut with NASA who served at the lunar base Jamestown in 1983.

## History

Cartwright came to Jamestown as part of mission 83, together with Molly Cobb. He was at the base during the massive solar storm on May 21, 1983.

Carl was part of the geological team "GEO-2" and was supposed to examine the newly claimed mining site 357/Bravo, but upon arrival he found out that the site had been occupied by Soviet cosmonauts.

## Notes

1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 Cartwright's actor is credited for episodes 2x01 and 2x03 but the character's face was only seen in 2x01. However, there is a high probability that he was one of the two astronauts finding out that 357/Bravo was taken by the Soviets in 2x03. The astronaut seen in this scene had a speaking role and was wearing the correct mission patch. However, it is not 100% confirmed to be him.

Chief of the Astronaut Office

> I decide who goes up and who doesn't.
>
> Deke Slayton, Chief of the Astronaut Office,
> in Season 1, Episode 4, "Prime Crew".

The **Chief of the Astronaut Office**, also called **Chief Astronaut**, was the most senior leadership position for active astronauts at NASA. The Chief Astronaut assigned astronauts to the missions and decided who was ready or not. He or she was also supervising and managing ASCAN education and trainings, and was responsible for coordination, scheduling, and control of all activities involving NASA astronauts. The Chief Astronaut had the final say who goes up and when.

The Astronaut Office was located at the Johnson Space Center, NASA's main space center in Houston, Texas. The office was dissolved by NASA director Margo Madison in 1992.

## History

NASA's first Chief Astronaut was Deke Slayton. After he was grounded from Project MercuryW due to heart issues, he became the "Coordinator of Astronaut Activities", held responsibility for the operation of the astronaut office. In 1964, the position "Chief of the Astronaut Office" was officially created.

In 1974, Deke was given medical clearance and he assigned himself to the prime crew of Apollo 24. During his absence, Buzz Aldrin became acting Chief Astronaut. After Deke died in lunar orbit, Edward Baldwin became the new Chief of the Astronaut Office after his return from Jamestown at the beginning of 1975. He stayed in office for almost 9 years until June 1983, when he like Deke before assigned himself for a mission again, the maiden flight of NASA's new shuttle, *Pathfinder*. He nominated Molly Cobb as his successor, who started her new job on June 27.

Nine years later, in August 1992, Margo Madison fired Molly after she had assigned Ed as mission commander for NASA's 1996 mission to Mars instead of Danielle Poole, who, according to Margo, was "the agency's choice". Margo decided, that from now on, flight crews would be determined by a selection committee based on mission parameters, and therefore dissolved the Astronaut Office.

* Cape Kennedy on US map

The **Cape Kennedy Air Force Station**, mostly referred to as **Cape Kennedy** or just "The Cape", later renamed to **Cape Canaveral Air Force Station** or just **Cape Canaveral**, is a launch complex operated by the US Air ForceW and also used by NASA. It is located on Cape CanaveralW in Brevard County, Florida.

## History

Cape Kennedy was used by NASA as launch site for their MercuryW, GeminiW, and Apollo programs.

On July 16, 1969, Apollo 11 launched from Cape Kennedy with the purpose of the first American manned Moon landing.

On August 24, 1974, a Saturn V rocket exploded on the launch pad at Cape Kennedy during the final countdown for Apollo 23. 12 people died, including former flight director and new director of the Johnson Space Center, Gene Kranz.

## Gallery

## Behind the scenes

The footage used in the show for Cape Kennedy for several launches is actually showing Launch Complex 39W, which is at the Kennedy Space Center, not at Cape Kennedy. In reality, no Saturn V rocket was ever launched from Cape Kennedy. In fact, one of the reasons to build the new space center was because the Cape did not have the capacities to launch the much bigger Saturn V rockets.

Further footage used in season 2 also showed images from KSC but was labeled as "Cape Kennedy", like those of the Vehicle Assembly BuildingW.

C-5 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft

## C-5 Shuttle Carrier

The **C-5 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft** is a modified Lockheed C-5 GalaxyW heavy-lift transport aircraft used by NASA to carry Space Shuttles.

## History

The C-5 SCA is used to transport Space Shuttles between landing and launch sites and to bring them to the Air Force's Plant 42 in Palmdale for their periodic overhaul (OMDP).

Starting in 1983, the SCA was also used as launch vehicle for the 2nd generation Pathfinder shuttles, carrying them to their launch altitude of 25,000 feet.

## Behind the scenes

* The C-5 GalaxyW was considered as a potential shuttle carrier aircraft in real life, but NASA opted to instead use the Boeing 747W for the mission.
* In reality, the two NASA Shuttle Carrier Aircraft were primarily used to transport the Space Shuttles between launch and landing sites. They were only used as launch vehicle for the early approach and landing testsW with the prototype Space Shuttle *Enterprise*.

2000 United States presidential election

## Electoral Map

The **2000 United States presidential election** was the 54th quadrennial presidential election, held on Tuesday, November 7, 2000. Al Gore won, winning 273 electoral votes, George H. W. Bush won 264, and Pat BuchananW won none. Gore won 50,999,897 popular votes.

## Nominations

### Republican Party Nomination

George H. W. Bush, the current Vice President at the time to Ellen Wilson.
### Democratic Party Nomination

Al Gore, the former Vice President to Gary Hart.
## General Election

On election night, the course of the election was a tight one, especially in Florida and Pennsylvania. In Florida, Gore was considered the winner just before polls closed in the Florida panhandle by many news networks including Eagle News, but as votes came in from the traditionally Republican districts in the panhandle, Bush began to narrow the gap and networks withdrew their predictions that the state was for Gore. But at nights end, all votes were tallied and Gore won the state with a 1,000 vote lead. Also, Florida Secretary of State Katherine Harris, who also was the co-chair for the Bush Campaign in the state, said early on election day that she wouldn't require overseas ballots to be post-marked by election day. This move caused most pundits to predict that Gore would lose Florida, most of those overseas votes were from members of the Armed Forces who traditional favored Republicans. But Gore shocked pundits by winning Florida, due to his handling of the Elián González caseW, as he showcased his political skill by cobbling together a collation of Democrats and Republicans in Congress to grant the boy citizenship, which help him win over Cuban-Americans in Florida. Gore by the end of the night would win Allegheny County in Pennsylvania, giving him enough electoral votes to win the state and become President Elect.

Apollo program

The **Apollo program** was a United States human spaceflight program carried out from 1961 to 1983 by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), with the aim to land American astronauts on the Moon, and later build and maintain a lunar outpost. The program used the Saturn IB and Saturn V launch vehicles to lift the Command and Service Module (CSM) and the Lunar Excursion Module (LEM) and later the Lunar Surface Access Module (LSAM) spacecrafts into space. The final Apollo mission was Apollo 75, used for the Apollo-Soyuz docking mission in Earth's orbit in fall 1983.

## Mission Patch

**Apollo 24** was a December 1974 crew rotation of the Jamestown Moon base. It was supposed to bring Edward Baldwin back to Earth. The CSM of Apollo 24 was called *Osprey*.

## History

After Apollo 24 had launched successfully on December 24 from Cape Kennedy into Earth's orbit, due to a failure in the flight control computer (FCC), the S-IVB of Apollo 24 failed to perform TLI. Apollo 25 was repurposed to stage a replacement of the computer. Two days later, Apollo 25 launched and performed a rendezvous with 24. Apollo 25 commander Molly Cobb and Apollo 24 astronauts Harrison Liu and Deke Slayton went for an EVA to exchange the faulty part.

However, at the end of the EVA, the S-IVB unexpectedly ignited, killing Harrison Liu and leaving Molly Cobb stranded in space. Although ordered to give up Molly by Mission Control, Tracy Stevens and Dennis Lambert in the Apollo 25 CSM managed to rendezvous and save her. Apollo 24 however was sent on a trajectory which would miss the Moon by 1600 km.

Edward Baldwin on board the LSAM managed to provide enough propellant to Ellen Wilson to avoid that the Apollo 24 CSM ends up drifting into deep space. Deke Slayton died of internal injuries, leaving Ellen as the only surviving crew member. Wilson took command of Jamestown and Edward Baldwin went back to Earth on board the CSM, landing safely.

Anastasia Belikova

**Anastasia Belikova** is a Soviet cosmonaut. On September 20, 1969, one day after the launch of Apollo 12, she landed on the Moon, becoming the first woman to set foot on Earth's natural satellite.

## History

Before being chosen for her lunar mission, Belikova was a pilot in the Soviet Air Force.

Her landing was considered a surprise to the United States and NASA, not because she had landed, but because she was a woman. The first knowledge of this to those outside the Soviet Space Program, was when she lifted her visor, while addressing the world on the lunar surface.

Following her Moon landing, Belikova became a global icon and an image of inspiration to women and girls all around the world. She was called "Russian Meteor Maid" by some newspapers.

After her landing, US President Richard Nixon, in an effort to catch up with Soviet achievements, ordered NASA to also send a woman to the Moon, "preferably a blonde". To do so, chief astronaut Deke Slayton initiated a new program to select and train female astronauts, which started in January 1970.

1996 United States presidential election

## Electoral Map

The **1996 United States presidential election** was the 53rd quadrennial presidential election, held on Tuesday, November 5, 1996. Incumbent President Ellen Wilson won re-election in an upset, defeating former Governor of California Jerry Brown. Wilson was the first openly gay person to win a Presidential Election. Wilson won 298 Electoral Votes, while Brown only won 240 Electoral Votes.

## Nominations

### Republican Party Nomination

Incumbent President Ellen Wilson, from Texas.Secretary of State George H. W. Bush, Ellen's running mate.
#### Republican candidates

James Bragg, former Vice President and Governor of Idaho.
In the lead-up to the primaries, Wilson faced significant challenges, with initial perceptions suggesting that her chances of securing the nomination were slim, particularly in the face of strong competition from her former Vice President, James Bragg. In 1995 when Wilson publicly came out, a move that sparked widespread controversy within her own party, leading to serious discussions about potential impeachment proceedings.

During the intense primary season, Bragg launched a formidable and unrelenting negative campaign against Wilson, adding to the challenges she faced within her own party. However, Wilson found a crucial ally in her Secretary of State, George H. W. Bush, who publicly endorsed her candidacy. Bush's endorsement proved pivotal, providing political cover to moderate Republicans who were hesitant about supporting Wilson. In a tight race, Wilson managed to secure the Republican nomination by a razor-thin margin. She selected Bush as her running mate.

### Democratic Party Nomination

Former Governor of California, Jerry Brown. It is unknown who his running mate was.
## General Election

Political pundits and pollsters had predicted that Wilson would lose the election to Brown. But she would shock the political world by winning, the reasons she won were due to her facing the American people and telling the truth about her sexuality, and her leadership after the 1995 Bombing of Johnson Space Center would help her win over the American people. She would also win over moderate and conservative Democrats that perceived Brown as being too radically left.

## Notes

Ellen Wilson and George H. W. Bush are both from Texas, but federal election law states that both the nominee and running mate cannot both be from the same state. It's possible Bush changed his voting registration from Texas to Maine or some other state.

Apollo 10

## Mission Patch

**Apollo 10** was a crewed spaceflight to the Moon, launched in May 1969, intended to test equipment for the planned landing by Apollo 11. The mission was commanded by Edward Baldwin, with Gordo Stevens as Lunar Excursion Module (LEM) pilot and Fred Talmadge as Command and Service Module (CSM) pilot. The CSM was nicknamed *Charlie Brown*, while the LEM was nicknamed *Snoopy*, in reference to the *Peanuts*W cartoons.

## History

Baldwin and Stevens brought the LEM to within eight nautical miles (15 km) of the lunar surface before aborting the landing stage. This would become controversial after the Soviet Union shocked NASA by beating Apollo 11 to the Moon.

After the Soviet landing, during a press conference, MSC director Wernher von Braun defended the decision to not land Apollo 10 the month before. He said that it was never even considered and that the LEM was too heavy and did not have enough fuel to land. However, Gordo called this "a bunch of bullshit" when asked about it by *Newsweek* reforter Paul Santoro. Ed confirmed the claim of Santoro that NASA doesn't have guts anymore, since the Apollo 1 fire. This statement later led to Ed temporary loosing his place for Apollo 15.

Baldwin was later called in to a congressional hearing on the matter, but he ultimately defended the decision not to land *Snoopy* on the Moon as his own.

## Behind the scenes

In reality, Apollo 10W lasted from May 18 - 26 and the crew was comprised of Thomas StaffordW (commander), Gene CernanW (LEM pilot), and John YoungW (CSM pilot). Like in the show, Apollo 10 was a test run, including the descent of the LEM and the aborted landing at about 8.4 nmi above ground.

## Notes

* The patch of this mission was almost identical to the patch of the real mission.
* This was the first Apollo mission seen in *For All Mankind*, however only in flashbacks of Ed Baldwin.
* The mission possibly happened on the same date as in reality, however this is not confirmed, only that it was about a month before the Soviet landing.

Happy Valley cryo center explosion

The **Happy Valley cryo center explosion** happened at the fuel plant of Happy Valley in 2003, when M-7 engineers tried to restart fuel production after the center had been blocked by the striking Helios workers.

### Background

In 2003, Helios workers at Happy Valley had begun to have misgivings about their contracts and their work, due to safety concerns, as well as a lack of bonuses due to the suspension of the asteroid capture program after the Kronos disaster. These misgivings came to a head when they discovered that the asteroid Goldilocks, which had initially been expected to be mined in Martian orbit, would instead only be captured by the workers and redirected to Earth's orbit. This, coupled with a major cut in their bonuses, pushed the workers to go on strike. As part of this strike, the fuel that was neccessary for *Ranger* to take part in the upcoming capture mission was no longer being produced.

### Workarounds and tragedy

After a meeting between M-7 and the striking workers held on day 7 of the strike, Roscosmos director Irina Morozova proposed to NASA director Eli Hobson that M-7 engineers would restart the fuel refining themselves. Despite Hobson's misgivings over the matter, the plan went ahead. After the strikers heard of this plan, they moved the base's supply of spacesuits onto the Martian surface, forcing the senior Helios member of the base, Palmer James, to lead a party through the grey water pipes to the cryo center.

Predicting that M-7 would attempt to restart the generators, Maya Estime had removed the primary gas regulator from the plant to ensure that the engineers would be unable to do so. As ESA engineer Nick Jennings, against the advice of other members of the party, bypassed the regulator, it caused an explosion that killed him and injured four others.

### Aftermath

In the aftermath of the explosion a meeting between Hobson, Will Tyler and CIA representative Robert Burks is held, organising a security detail out of M-7 members with military backgrounds. They begin to crack down on the striking workers and looking for evidence linked to the blast. This crackdown, as well as the blast itself, led to infighting between the striking workers, which Helios CEO Dev Ayesa took advantage of, breaking the strike.

James Bragg

**James "Jim" Bragg** is the 43rd vice president of the United States, serving with his president Ellen Wilson. He was the former governor of Idaho.

He was a founding member of the group "Conservatives for Jesus Christ".

## History

Bragg is initially selected as Ellen's vice-presidential candidate, despite Ellen wanting to select Arizona politician John McCainW. Bragg is shown to be a highly devout Christian conservative, particularly by claiming opposition to stem-cell research in part due to his anti-abortion viewpoints during a debate with Ellen.

Bragg eventually suggests that Ellen resign to avoid impeachment by Congress after the latter comes out as an LGBT woman to the public in 1995.

Subsequently Bragg openly challenges Wilson during the 1996 GOP primaries, running an overtly negative campaign against her with the backing of the party's socially conservative wing. However, Ellen Wilson would win the Republican nomination for president once more, in part due to the timely backing of her secretary of state (and later Vice President) George H. W. Bush, which would give her the cover needed from Republican moderates to win the 1996 election against California Democrat Jerry Brown.

Harrison Liu

**Harrison "Harry" Liu** was the first Asian American astronaut of NASA and the lunar module pilot of Apollo 24.

## History

Liu was part of an orbital mission with Apollo 19, together with Fred HaiseW and Ellen Waverly, sometime before 1974. He was selected for Apollo 24, together with Deke Slayton and mission commander Ellen, now Wilson. The mission started mid December 1974 and was supposed to relieve Ed Baldwin, who was stuck on the Moon since summer.

In Earth's orbit, when Apollo 24 was supposed to ignite burn for TLI, nothing happened. Diagnosis revealed a faulty flight control computer (FCC), which could not be repaired but had to be replaced. Houston repurposed Apollo 25 to deliver and install a new FCC into 24's instrument unit (IU).

After the successful repair, during a self-test sequence, the Apollo 24 S-IVB did an uncommanded burn, while Harry, Deke and Molly Cobb were still outside, tethered to the ship. Liu was killed when the acceleration of the stage caused his tether to unravel and swing him into the J-2's exhaust, incinerating him instantly.
