For All Mankind Season 2 picks up off the back of the Season 1 post-credit scene. What year is this season set in, and when does it end?

The end of For All Mankind Season 1 brought us some major and devastating moments. We lost a few characters in the mission to retrieve Ed from Jamestown. The post-credit scene ended with us in 1983. The question was whether this would be a hint at a time jump or if it was just to show what could come.

Well, it turned out that it was a hint at a time jump. The start of For All Mankind Season 2 brought us a string of news clips to catch us up on some of the events. We saw some other moments change, including John Lennon escaping death, Pope John Paul II being assassinated, and more.

What year is For All Mankind Season 2 set in?

The main story of the season opens in 1983, shortly after the post-credit scene in the first season. We quickly get caught up on where many of the characters are, along with a look at where things are on the moon. Of course, there is also talk of a mission to Mars.

Naturally, there are plenty of disasters. After all, space exploration is dangerous. We still know it is now, and some of the things that we know to happen now weren’t fully understood in 1983. That’s where we find many of our characters. It’s important to forget what we know about space now to put us in the mindset of some of the characters.

The season ends in 1983. While the first season covered five years, the second season only covered one. However, there is a post-credit scene that gives us another time jump. It takes place in 1995.
