Space Force Season 2: What Will Happen?

During the first season finale, the Joint Chief of Staff debated the legality of China’s actions and discussed the possibility of a war. Mark feared that the response from his space team could lead to a domino effect, resulting in a nuclear war. Mark suggested mild alternatives for the habitat assault, and the Joint Chiefs concurred. However, the Defense Secretary overruled them and ordered Mike to destroy the Chinese base. Mark reluctantly ordered his crew to arm the Habitat One as the team began preparing for weapons use.

Further, Adrian resigned from his position while Mark changed his mind. He decided to conspire with Adrian and disobey the orders to attack the Chinese base. Mark ordered his crew to disassemble their weapons and use the parts for habitat modification. 

Eventually, the President got wind of mark’s defiance. He sent Grabaston to establish a military coup. Soon after, the Airforce team stormed in and arrested Duncan, Mark, and Adrian. Elsewhere, Erin vandalized Kelly’s car and was fired from her job. She joined a group of suspicious men who wanted to do drugs.

Hence, Mark escaped the facility after getting a call from Erin. He took a helicopter to save Erin while maggie and Louise escaped from the prison. He picked them up too while the Habitat crew returned from their sabotage mission. However, Mark turned the helicopter around after finding out that the Chinese destroyed the American base completely at the end of the first season.
