    When Mark Watney when back inside the rover, eating his meal, and writes the letter to whoever the next astronaut to find the rover and he patting it, it got me thinking and yes it was like saying "goodbye friend thanks for saving me" almost like saying goodbye to your favorite toy.

      ... and for a very short time I became the fastest kid on the block as the 40 mph winds that ripped through there took me for one hell of a wild ride. I never could understand why my grandparents got upset.

      The book was actually quite well informed. It makes some assumptions about humanity's future technological advancements, but its all pretty reasonable stuff. There's not much in the book or movie that's impossible. Improbable sure, but space travel has always been about overcoming improbable odds.
      As far as inaccuracies go, its interesting to note that there are three main types: Nitpicky specifics, Problems that we could feasibly find the solution to in 30 years, and scenarios Mark Watney would have never gone through because we've either already discovered/developed a solution for it or because Mars isn't quite as inhospitable as its portrayed.

    • @StormsandSaugeye

      It's actually quite accurate. Mostly cause the writer got in touch with several JPL and Greenbelt engineers to check details. About the only inaccuracies that exist are the sand storm and the soil. That's mostly because martian soil has a lot of perchlorates in it which would have to be neutralized, but the way it was presented was as if you could somehow just add manure and go. That's not entirely accurate but hey, those kinds of details are minor and honestly if people have to nitpick THAT, then the movie did a lot right.

    • @camburger8263
      @camburger8263 4 ปีที่แล้ว +166

      The issue isn't atmospheric pressure. It's weight. Watney has a time limit to get out of the atmosphere in order to make it to his pick up crew. If he makes it too early, he goes past them, and floats away in space until he suffocates. If he makes it too late, which would happen if he doesn;t get rid of everything, he goes past them, and floats awawy in space until he suffocates. In order to launch at the right time to make it at the exact right time to not suffocate in space, he needs to get rid of everything he can.

      There may not be much, but when you're stripping your machine bare to scrape out every nanometer/second of delta V you can, aerodynamics and extreme high speed launching starts to become an issue. It's not how little pressure there is in the rest state, it's the compaction against a rocket moving damned near as fast as a bullet.

      They opt into a plan that would allow Johannsen to survive the trip, but only just: Lewis, Martinez, Wogal and Beck would all kill themselves the instant they knew they wouldn't get the supplies, and Johannsen would have to ride the Hermes on its course to Mars, not pick up Watney, and ride home, alone. Her only food source? The remaining rations and the other 4 crew members.

    You know... I really do love this movie but I hate the way they frickin insisted on making it windy as hell on Mars. For those of us that know a little bit about the atmosphere of Mars, it's a _glaring_ oversight. Even in one of the massive, planet wide dust storms, you would barely get enough wind force out of it to ruffle your hair. The air is just way too thin for any kind of Earth-like wind to exist. If the air were thick enough to create the wind effects you repeatedly see in the movie, 90% of his problems wouldn't have existed and he might have thoroughly enjoyed his stay there.

      I assume there wasn't enough fuel to launch it normally, though I haven't read the book.
      Passenger spacecraft are launched slower than cargo spacecraft to avoid exposing the passengers to high g-forces, but that means spending more time fighting gravity before reaching orbit, which uses up more fuel.
      The mars ascent vehicle contained a device that extracted carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to generate fuel and oxygen. This is a real concept proposed for future mars missions, but it takes years to build up enough fuel to launch. Watney couldn't wait that long, so they had to launch it with the fuel it already had.

    After looking at all the comments about the wind issue, I decided to run some calculations. Wind force is proportional to air density times the square of the wind speed. Average surface air density is about 0.02 kg/m^3 on Mars, about 1.225 kg/m^3 on Earth. Wind speeds in the strongest Martian storms peak at about 60 MPH, so if you solve for an equal wind force the equivalent wind needed on Earth is about 7.7 MPH. So whoever said the strongest Martian storm would have same direct wind effect as a light breeze on Earth was exactly correct. The real issue would be the dust, which gets electrostatically charged and clings to everything.

    One thing that never made sense to me and maybe I missed it, but if that craft was designed as a return vehicle wouldn't it already by design have sufficient fuel as well as the correct thrust to weight ratio needed to launch and rendezvous with an awaiting ship in orbit like the Lunar Module did in the Apollo program? The fact he had to shed weight on it to get it off the ground and even then have to EVA his way to the ship begs the question, why did they build and send this lander to Mars in the first place if it can't do that on its own? These things are by no means cheap so if you're going to go through the time money and trouble to build it and get it there, wouldn't you have made sure it could do the the job without someone having to strip it down?

      You're right, it would be designed to rendezvous with the Hermes in a parking orbit. But this isn't a parking orbit. The Hermes isn't in that design parking orbit. To rendezvous, you need to both be in the same place, going the same speed. In this case, while the place part isn't too bad, the Hermes is going much, much faster than was intended. So the ascent vehicle needs to go much, much faster than intended, which means you need to shed inert mass, and a lot of it.

      I highly recommend the book, in which the author explained that the Ares 4 ascent vehicle (MAV) was placed there 4 years prior to Ares 4 crew's arrival and without fuel, because the MAV is designed to slowly covert the Martian atmosphere to refuel itself over a 4 year period via a chemical reaction. In fact plan A for his rescue is to wait until Ares 4 crew to come pick him up in a few years. All was interrupted by the events that killed his potato farm such that he would have starved to death by waiting for Ares 4, necessitating an earlier rescue. It's a combination of the MAV not being fully fueled (meaning less available engine burn), and the higher than required rendezvous speed, that requires the drastic weight reduction.

    • @Cedar_Wolf
      @Cedar_Wolf 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      To piggyback on what the other two people have already said about speed and Mark's potato farm being dead, one of the reasons the Hermes is going so much faster is because their plan calls for using Mars' gravity as a slingshot to help them get home faster. They don't have enough supplies to slow down and speed back up again, so they need to pick up Mark on the way, while cruising at speed.
      It's the difference between tossing a pitch to a guy standing at a base vs tossing one to someone running around the bases. For the second guy to be able to catch the ball, you need to throw where he is going to be and you need to throw fast enough for the ball to be there when he gets to it.
