  • Movie Review: ‘The Martian’
    Movie Review: ‘The Martian’ By John Mulderig Catholic News Service NEW YORK – Though the compelling sci-fi epic “The Martian” (Fox) is an unusually long movie, what viewers of faith may cherish most about this masterful adventure is a single line of dialogue in the form of a three-word prayer. Brief as it is, this one utterance – made all the more eloquent by the apparently casual tone in which it’s pronounced – represents a ringing affirmation of belief in divine assistance. Few have ever needed the aid of providence more than the character who delivers this line, astronaut Mark Watney (Matt Damon). Because, by the time he offers his short plea to God, Mark is alone on the surface of Mars, more than 30 million miles away from home. The film’s opening scenes recount the series of unexpected occurrences that led to Mark’s terrifying plight. The botanist on a NASA mission to the Red Planet – “The Martian” is set in a version of the near future where such journeys are more or less routine – Mark, like his colleagues, was forced to abandon his work on short notice due to the sudden arrival of a fierce windstorm that threatened to destroy their rocket. As they all scrambled to depart, Mark was struck by flying debris and swept out of sight in the tempest, leaving his crewmates, led by conscientious Commander Melissa Lewis (Jessica Chastain), with no time to mount a rescue attempt. Back on Earth, NASA director Teddy Sanders (Jeff Daniels) delivered the bad news to the public, officially announcing Mark’s death.

  • The Martian by Andy Weir
    The Martian by Andy Weir Summary Spoiler Alert: The following summary and discussion questions reveal plot information that some readers may prefer to encounter as surprises. The Martian takes place in a near-future setting, and unfolds in fragmentary diary entries and third- person accounts. Ares III, the latest manned shuttle mission to Mars, lands with plans to remain on the planet's surface for several weeks. A freak, high-velocity dust storm strikes; mission engineer Mark Watney is impaled by flying debris and presumed dead after his bio-suit stops reporting his vitals. Commander Michelle Lewis orders the remaining crew to evacuate. They flee, mourning Mark's death during the long voyage back to Earth. In reality, Mark is injured but alive. He regains consciousness to find himself utterly alone in the inhospitable alien landscape. The only hope of rescue (the next manned mission) is four long years away -- and he has supplies for, at most, only a few weeks. Fortified by his own wickedly blunt sense of humor -- and completely confident in his crewmates' loyalty and skill -- Mark painstakingly improvises ways of providing himself with water, heat, and shelter. He even establishes a mini-potato farm in his biosphere to extend his scant food supplies. None of it is easy, however: any small incident (torn fabric around an airlock) can have disastrous consequences (the collapse of his shelter -- and destruction of his garden). Although often amused by the realization that he is the first to do everything on Mars, he is also dismayed by the depth of his isolation as the weeks stretch into months.

  • A Review of the Martian by Andy Weir
    For millennia the reddish point of light in the sky has attracted humans. The Greeks and the Romans associated the bloody red object with their god of war (Ares and Mars respectively). The Arabs named Cairo for the planet (Al Najm Al Qahir) which was rising on the day the city was founded in 972 CE. Science fiction writers have long seen Mars as a destination. Most famously, of course, was Edgar Rice Burroughs’ Martian series with its swashbuckling heroes and damsels in distress acting out on the kind of dying Mars popularized by Percival Lowell. In the middle of the 20th century, Ray Bradbury brought in themes that echoed the Cold War as his protagonists emigrated to Mars. By the 1960s, with the first spacecraft having flown by Mars, stories about going there began to change, more recently with Kim Stanley Robinson’s 1990s Mars trilogy about colonizing and terraforming a hostile planet. With The Martian, first-time novelist Andy Weir has jumped into that large pool of novels about human voyages to Mars. He has written a Robinson Crusoe on Mars story about human perseverance and ingenuity in one of the most hostile environments humans have dreamed of exploring. (Those who have not read the novel or seen the movie should be aware that I am going to disclose some of the story.) The Martian is a “page-turner” with a steady stream of challenging problems and ingenuous solutions. This novel is positive about NASA and its team approach to 1 missions and solving problems (think Apollo 13).

  • Andy Weir (Jan
    Science Fiction Book Club Interview with Andy Weir (Jan. 2020) Andy Weir built a career as a software engineer until the success of his first published novel, “The Martian,” allowed him to live out his dream of writing fulltime. He is a lifelong space nerd and a devoted hobbyist of subjects such as relativistic physics, orbital mechanics, and the history of manned spaceflight. Thomas Watson: People who are inclined to express themselves creatively have no shortage of options for doing so. Some paint, some sing, others write. How did writing come to be your choice? Well, I’ve always liked storytelling. And I’m a terrible artist. So that kind of leaves me with writing. Kevin Kuhn Love your books, sir! How involved were you with the screenplay for "The Martian"? Did you have any issues with departures from your novel? Was there anything you enjoyed that was added? Mostly my job was just to cash the check. Though they did send me the screenplay to get my opinion. They weren't required to listen to anything I had to say. They kept me updated on the production because they’re cool. And in the end, the film is very true to the book, so I'm happy. Yeah, they made some changes. They had to pull things out, or the film would be 5 hours long. But overall it's a very faithful adaptation of the book and I'm thrilled with how it turned out. Sara Sandy Gabai Zanger/Philip Cowan: As a child or teen, which writers - and which of their works - got you so excited about science fiction that you wanted to write in that genre? I grew up reading my father’s sci-fi book collection, so I’m one full generation off in what I read.

  • 1 the MARTIAN – Film at CONCA VERDE on 30.05.16 – Talk By
    THE MARTIAN – Film at CONCA VERDE on 30.05.16 – Talk by Adam Dukes and delivered by Joel Ormsby I would like to start, if I may, with a quote. Isaac Asimov once said: 'Individual science fiction stories may seem as trivial as ever to the blinder critics and philosophers of today - but the core of science fiction, its essence has become crucial to our salvation if we are to be saved at all.' Salvation. A word that immediately makes you think of religious images; saviours, deaths, resurrections and Gods. Fitting, then, that The Martian is a tale of a man, thought dead by his crew mates and the people of Earth, seemingly brought back to life and trying to survive on the hostile planet of Mars. The novel The Martian was written as a novel in 2011 by Andy Weir and was the first novel published under his own name. The story follows NASA astronaut Mark Watney, a botanist and mechanical engineer left stranded on the surface of Mars after his crew mates are forced to escape the planet as the result of an intense dust storm. The film The film was released in 2015 and stars Matt Damon. It was directed by Ridley Scott. The film's ensemble cast also features Jessica Chastain, Kristen Wig, Jeff Daniels, Michael Peñya, Kate Mara, Sean Bean, Sebastian Stan, Aksel Hennie, and Chooitell Edgy oh four. The novelist Weir is the son of a particle physicist and with a background in computer science and began writing The Martian in 2009. He researched relevant material so that his novel would be as realistic as possible and based on existing technology.

  • Sci Fi Schwab
    Science Fiction and Fantasy A Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab (Sci Fi Schwab) Kell is one of the last Travelers – magicians with a rare, coveted ability to travel between parallel universes – and as such, he can choose where he lands. There's Grey London, dirty and boring, without any magic. Then there's Red London, where life and magic are revered. White London is ruled by whoever has murdered their way to the throne – a place where people fight to control magic, and the magic fights back. And once upon a time, there was Black London ... but no one speaks of that now. Officially, Kell is the Red Traveler, personal ambassador and adopted Prince of Red London. Unofficially, Kell is a smuggler, servicing people willing to pay for even the smallest glimpses of a world they'll never see – a dangerous hobby, and one that has set him up for accidental treason. Fleeing into Grey London, Kell runs afoul of Delilah Bard, a cut-purse with lofty aspirations, who first robs him, then saves him from a dangerous enemy, and finally forces him to spirit her to another world for a proper adventure. But perilous magic is afoot, and treachery lurks at every turn. To save all of the worlds, Kell and Lila will first need to stay alive – and that is proving trickier than they hoped. Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie (Sci Fi Leckie) On a remote, icy planet, the soldier known as Breq is drawing closer to completing her quest. Breq is more than she seems and less than she was.

  • Dear Andy Weir, Your Book the Martian Has Inspired Me in Many
    Dear Andy Weir, Your book The Martian has inspired me in many ways. It has helped me enjoy space more, strengthened my love for literature, and taught me to be thankful for the important people in my life. Overall, I think your book has changed me more than a few ways. I believe it has made me a better person as well. First off, I love space. Ever since I was about eight I always wanted to pursue some sort of career involving space. Whether it be an astronomer, astronaut or more recently an astrophysicist, I always wanted something to do with space and space travel. The Martian gave me a brief idea of what life in space might be like in the worst possible case. It made me realize space could be more dangerous than I thought. But that didn’t slow me down, in fact, I think I want to go to space even more because I love danger! But I won’t go to deep into that. I just love the suspense of never knowing what’s going to happen. In my advanced literature class this year my classmates would always talk about how much they love reading. I never really understood what they were talking about until I read our book. I was always more of a by the numbers type person that didn’t really enjoy reading things. Then this year we started having an independent reading mod so I had to have a book to read. So, I chose The Martian. I instantly fell in love with it.
