Listening to the Audiobook now. It gives me the same vibe as Star Trek IV. No villain, just people to save and a puzzle to solve.

Andy Weir is the sci-fi equivalent of a Sunday roast. Just makes me feel good.

When I say I believe in science it means that I admit when I don’t know or when I’m wrong but never stop trying to figure it out. Always striving to use the most updated knowledge and techniques of course 🥰🥰🥰

Love it! Such a great book and a character perfectly written for Gosling who takes his work so seriously.

I’m really hoping we get Artemis next. Because that’s my favorite of his. I can’t wait to see Hail Mary and definitely devoured the book. This movie came right we really needed it. I really appreciate it. (Hail Mary)

Loved reading the books before watching the film and the cinema experience doesn’t fall short on this, so much that I am dragging my mates to see it in IMAX so I can see it again on a bigger screen. Do you think they will make Artemis into a film?

Saw the movie today and listened to the audio book a few months ago. I absolutely love Andy Weir!

Me and my partner have both read the book, we both loved it, and we're seeing it at the cinema in just a couple days! We're so hyped!

would you care to comment about generative AI and the impact if any it might have in your field?

I'm in love with science since I watched Carl Sagan's Cosmos in 1980.

That was something I really noticed the first time I read The Martian. So much went wrong, but he was able to science his way out of it. There wasn't magic, there wasn't hand waving "future technology." It was all information and technology currently available to us. I was so jazzed to go to Mars by the end of that book!

Read the book, hope the film is as good. And science should be liked more than it is, it can save peoples lives.

The only “hope” is for the people left on Earth. Grace doesn’t have hope. He works the problems realizing he won’t benefit from his discoveries. The scientists that develop the mission are forced by circumstance, not choice. The solution to the astrophage is only possible by the coordination of Grace & Rocky, & that is coincidental, not planned at launch. IMO the story isn’t about hope at all.

What the world needs is Project Hail Mary but what we are getting is Fallout.

Think about this: we live in a world where most of us are told being wrong by is bad. Then there’s science. Where being wrong is essential. Personally, I believe part of this disconnect is here.
