Exclusive clip: 'For All Mankind' sets up path for space exploration going forward

There is a scene in the movie "Apollo 13," inspired by the events of the real mission, where Ed Harris, portraying flight director Gene Kranz, takes to a blackboard to draw the path of the crippled spacecraft from where it is to where it needs to be in order to return the astronauts home.

"I want this mark all the way back to Earth with time to spare," says Kranz (Harris) to a group of flight controllers.

Though not a direct parallel, this clip, an exclusive sneak peek from this week's episode of "For All Mankind," outlines the trajectories for what could be the "failure is not an option" moment for Season 4 of the alternate space history drama.
