But this is really about the writer deciding the way that he thinks. Lacey You know, I’ve talked about how part of what makes him fully fleshed out for me is the way that he talks. So that’s when he almost blew himself up in the hab trying to make water. But then his emotional center says that he’s bonded to Rover two because of the nights he stayed in it during what does he call it, the great hydrogen crisis scare.Īlex Yeah, great hydrogen scare of soul. He’s got all the available information that he needs. OK, so one of the things that makes Mark Watney a fully fleshed out character is he uses logic brain to know that he can trick out this rover.
Lacey I love how he picks which rover he’s going to use. And then he needs to find a way to not use the heater so that these two batteries can get him farther. But what he does is he takes the battery from Rover one. So he tries a test run without using the heater and just hoping that he can put on blankets and stuff.Īlex And that very much does not work because he does he does three layers thinking that. So the big problem that he deals, so the big problem that he’s dealing with in this chapter is how does he get his Rovere to go farther on a charge? Because what he realizes is that over half the battery gets used just on the heater inside because Mars is very cold. What is it it’s it’s about three and a half.Īlex Well, it’s important that’s after he solves the heating issue, right. Lacey I mean, that’s your you are it’s not that’s not true for for scientific accuracy. And this is a place where, you know, his rover can drive for like an hour before it has to recharge. Lacey Or it’s a one way trip from Los Angeles to New Orleans about. Thirty two hundred kilometers is almost two thousand miles, which is approximately going the length of New Zealand and back the whole thing, like starting in Auckland, going to Invercargill and then going back. So I just want to put it out there that like I love how optimistic that little thought process is.Īlex It’s only three thousand kilometers. Lacey He says this better for you anyway.
So the AC4 math is only thirty two hundred kilometers and it could have been 10000 kilometers. OK, well, so what do you got?Īlex You’ve got ninety five pages, as usual, so let’s start with you. We pick up Chapter seven and he is preparing the rover for a long voyage or serious something for for the serious miles. He is he’s been working on making water and growing potatoes and all sorts of fun stuff.
For those who’ve been following along, Mark Watney is stranded on Mars. But in the meantime, we’re jumping into Chapter seven of the mission. So there is a wrong answer to this question is the wrong answer. Because someone in the world is wrong and it’s either me or someone else. Specifically the movie, what genre would you call the movie.
#MOONS OF MADNESS WATER RECLAIMER MOVIE#
More specifically, what is the movie to you?Īlex Yeah, I think I mean, I think they’re basically the same. Yeah, which sounds about right to make that drive adventure drama. But like, my God, in the meantime, I have a question for the audience, which is, if you had to pick a genre for the Martian, what would it be?Īlex The answer might surprise you. Lacey Only because 10 was really boring.Īlex So Lacey has strong opinions about Chapter 10. Alex Hey, folks, this is Alexander Winn.Īlex And we’re here to talk about the next four chapters of The Martian, we’re on Episode three of our read through of The Martian by Andy Weir.Īlex And tonight, we are covering chapters seven through 10.
