Our hearts were broken but our hopes were restored in the fifth season finale of For All Mankind.

On the Red Planet, the horror of the battle between the freedom-seeking Marsies and the M-6 alliance troops reached a peak when thanks to subterfuge by Governor Polivanov (Costa Ronin), the rebels learned the location of the invaders’ HQ and Miles (Toby Kebbell) pushed a button that burned them alive. Irina (Svetlana Efremova) and Aleida (Coral Peña) made a gutsy move to restore comms so the latter could send crucial lift-off information to the spacecraft on Saturn’s moon, Titan. They got a shock: Incoming news revealed that a ceasefire had been called. They, along with Dev (Edi Gathegi) and Alex (Sean Kaufman), bravely made sure that news reached the troops, saving many lives. On Titan, the expedition in search of life finally found what they had been looking for but with the team facing a shortage of their oxygen supply, Kelly Baldwin (Cynthy Wu) volunteered to sacrifice her own life so her colleagues could make it back from a research area to the main ship and share the news with the world.
