The Martian

If there’s one thing the Martian taught me, it’s that I would die right away if my crew left me for dead on a deserted, uncompromising planet. So let’s make a pact right here, right now not to do that, m’kay? Favourite line: “I’m going to have to science the shit out of this.” Biggest…
