Nitpick: I think the Sea Dragon launch is actually first shown right at the very end of season 1.
What I particularly like about the show is how technology advances more quickly in their timeline - e.g. electric car, cell phones in the 1980s.

NASA administrator might have had Motorola DynaTAC 8000X in 1983 even in our timeline. EV car that runs 60 miles with a single charge is a real change to our timeline, but believable if the investment into EV would have been huge (needed in the moon and space in large quantities). Overall, the worldbuilding that went into that show is impressive. Many events in the show actually happened, but are resolved differently or have different consequences.
