Season four of For All Mankind picked up eight years after the events of season three, with Happy Valley rapidly expanding its footprint on Mars by turning former enemies into partners. In 2003, the space program focused on capturing and mining highly valuable, mineral-rich asteroids that could change the future of both Earth and Mars. But simmering tensions among the residents of the now-expanding international base threaten to undo everything they worked toward.
