Bob
Bob asked Andy Weir:

How much of the technology (spacecraft, lander, spacesuits, tent, etc) that you include is "NASA has this in use today" and how much is "we could do this if we wanted to, we've just never bothered to", and how much of it did you have to just make up something brand new that humans invented just for the trip to Mars?

Nathan Dunahoo
Nathan Dunahoo asked Andy Weir:

Did you make any of the science in the book up? As in, he really couldn't make water but you let it pass anyway so that the story would be better?

Ryan Grimm
Ryan Grimm asked Andy Weir:

I found the story of how your book came to be published very inspiring. How do you recommend someone getting their book noticed on the internet if going the self-published route? I don't necessarily mean noticed by a major publisher, but simply gaining readers.
