Moz
Moz asked Andy Weir:

This is an obvious question but how much of the technology has been invented already and how much is just theories?

Chad Meadows
Chad Meadows asked Andy Weir:

I'm a huge fan of your work! What are your favorite book genres? Do you enjoy writing other things then science fiction? What do you see future projects leaning towards?

Jared Wall
Jared Wall asked Andy Weir:

This question contains spoilers… (view spoiler)[ 1) How could wind blowing in Mars' atmosphere have enough force to dislodge the comm dish? The lower atmosphere pressure would mean a significantly less force behind the wind.

2) Mark is in Acidalia Planitia, one of the flattest plains on Mars. Yet, he refers to falling down a steep hill. How does Acidalia Planitia have steep hills? Also, why would NASA have chosen a landing site next to anything that steep.
