The change within two perspectives in this book unique. One perspective is on earth, trying to find a way to save the man on Mars. Another one is on Mark, trying to survive the dangers of Mars by trying to get communication again to get back to earth. A major theme in this book is the power of education. The man stuck on Mars uses his knowledge to make food and water, and repairing his rover if anything goes wrong.

Another theme I think I found within the book, is the theme of never giving up on anyone. Ever since "The Martian" on Mars got on Mars, his team on Earth thought he was dead. But once they saw movement, they tried as quickly as they could to save him by communicating to check up on him and making plans on how to save "The Martian" in several months, even though he stayed in Mars for a long time.

This book, in my opinion, is a little bit similar to A Long Walk To Water, because of how Mark tries to survive in Mars with consuming minimal food and water, so he can live longer. This relates a little bit to Salva because he and his group also had eat as much as they can, so they can survive.

The theme I am thinking about right now in the book is about the good sides of education. In the book, the protagonist is only surviving, only because of his knowledge of survival, math, and science. Without the knowledge, I think the main character would be dead within the first week he was on Mars.

In the story, the martian tries to go to "Ares 4" to try to get communication to earth, so he can return home. He does this by reserving energy in his space buggy, by not using heaters. He also still tries to make food and water for survival, which is going ok, at the moment.

This book is about a martian crash landing into mars, all by himself. With all of the resources he has in his ship, he tries surviving the red dusty land by making food, and water, with his knowledge. Sometimes in the process of making food or water might go wrong in the ship, sometimes everything feels like home.
