Suzanne
Suzanne asked Andy Weir:

Do you have shares in duct tape?

Andy Weir Haha no. But I will say this: Duct Tape is The Force. It has a light side, a dark side, and it binds everything together.

rick. asked Andy Weir:

Have you read any speculative missions for colonization in the upper atmosphere of Venus? The vision of a Bespin-like floating colony with travel by dirigible seems to be a perfect blend of hard science with fanboy Star Wars and steampunk nostalgia. The Martian was a perfect blend of humor, thriller and science. Thank you for a novel depicting smart people making smart choices where science is the hero.

Sidharth Makhija asked Andy Weir:

Did you have any alternate endings in mind regarding Mark Watney's fate?..If yes then I'd love to hear one of them. :D -Sidharth

Sam Bossen
Sam Bossen asked Andy Weir:

The Martian rides a delicate line between giving enough detailed scientific information that interests the reader without being overwhelming. Do you plan to take this approach with a new story?
