The Martian Interview with Mark Watney News report

Hello viewer's. This week we've been working on our The Martian movie on science and today the thing we did was the news report.The movie was really fun and all but you can learn a lot from just a single movie, and my favorite part is when he poke a hole on his left hand and let the oxygen leak through and use the gravity's trust and his joke when he said *at least i got to fly like Iron man*. It was really fun doing the news report.

The well known Mark the Martian got stuck at Mars and survived on his own. A severe dust storm threatens to topple their Mars Ascent Vehicle then the mission was scrubbed, but as the crew evacuates, astronaut Mark Watney is struck is struck by a debris but luckily he survived, however he was stabbed by an antenna and he have to take it out and heal his wound.As Watney recovers he begins a video diary due to he cannot communicate to NASA. For about a month Watney made a small farm and used the potatoes left as crops and excess hydrogen from the lander and using principles of chemistry to convert it into water as a water source and used human waste. But his crops died due to the atmosphere and temperature sterilized-the soil. But before his crops died he found a way to communicate to NASA by taking the rover to retrieve the nearby Pathfinder probe, which fell silent in 1997. Using Pathfinder’s camera and motor, he establishes rudimentary two-way communication with Earth.His crew mate didn’t know he was alive because Sanders wanted them to focus on their mission so they told them when they found out how to get him back instead.They all agree to save him and do the plan that Rich Purnell planned and it worked, they have been working on it and then they manage to get him out of mars and he got to fly like iron man. They got back to Earth safely.

  1. This is an excellent summary of the plot Kristille. It's good to read your comments on the chemistry involved. Were you aware of how many different branches of science
    were referred to in that movie?
