Mike Nemeth asked Andy Weir:

Andy, your book stuck with me, mainly for its stark realism. This is not John Carter's Mars. You appear to have inside information. I'm wondering after seeing the NBC News story on Alyssa Carlson, the 13-year-old who wants to go to the red planet, do you think she'll make it? That would be another 10-13 years from now.

Jeff Williams

Jeff Williams asked Andy Weir:

Did you feel at any point (or points) in the novel that you might need to use inaccurate science as a plot driver to give the story more 'oomph,' or was that never a problem?

Richard

Richard asked Andy Weir:

Did you reference or were you inspired by other works of fiction, movies, or television when writing The Martian? If so, what were they?
