• Resumen

  • If you’re planning to watch The Martian, Ridley Scott's newest sci-fi extravaganza, get ready for a love story. The romantic lead isn't Mark Watney (Matt Damon), the intrepid astronaut hero who gets stranded on Mars after a NASA mission goes awry. It's science. Science spoke with director Ridley Scott; Andy Weir, whose debut novel provided the tale; and Jim Green, NASA's director of planetary science and an adviser on the film, to find out how they made movie magic while staying largely faithful to the science—leaving out a raging dust storm and a few other moments of implausibility.
