  Andy Weir, the author, also wrote <b>Project Hail Mary</b> - His dad worked for Jet Propulsion Laboratories, so he has been a NASA Nerd all his life. He did the best he could to make all the science in his books accurate. The <b>ONE</b> thing he had to do in &quot;The Martian&quot; is make up a reason for Watney to get stranded on Mars, which is <b>THE STORM</b> - The atmosphere on Mars is so thin, that a &quot;Storm&quot; would be like a breeze floating some dust around. That violent of a wind would NEVER happen on Mars.

  the supply rocket bringing food to astronauts exploding actually happened once in real life. A famous British chef Heston Blumenthal was asked to prepare special meals for British astronauts aboard the ISS and when he finished preparing and packaging all the meals the rocket exploded at launch. He actually did it again and the second launch was successful.

  Great reaction. &nbsp;I have a feeling Rich Parnell doesn&apos;t have to worry about finding a job ever again.

  Another good space movie is Apollo 13. &nbsp;Based on the real mission. &nbsp;It has been simplified, but for a Hollyweird movie, it does a decent job of capturing the spirit of how NASA dealt with the problems.

  A Sol is basically a day on Earth. They call it something different because Sol’s are longer than Earth days. 39 minutes longer.

  You can see how the directing style from this movie evolved into the same style as Project Hail Mary. &nbsp;Great Reaction.

  Hey guys, you should 100% check out the sci-fi film Sunshine by Danny Boyle. Such an underrated and forgotten about film with a great cast and amazing visuals. Deffo in my top 5 maybe even top 3 sci fi films.
