SOL 6:
I stumbled up the hill back toward the Hab. As I crested the rise, I saw something that made me very happy and something that made me very sad: The Hab was intact (yay!) and the MAV was gone (boo!).
Right at that moment I knew I was screwed.
After seeing The Martian (movie) in theatres, I knew I had to get my hands on the book. You've heard me say this before, and will probably hear me say it again, but The Martian (book and otherwise) is an uplifting story about how the world comes together to bring one (very intelligent) man home from Mars. I began reading Andy Weir's story at the end of October, and, unfortunately, haven't gotten very far. The story is filled to the brim with science as main man Mark Watney works through all of the problems he faces in this survival of the fittest story. I would recommend this book for science geeks, people who love the movie, or people who just want to read an optimistic story about the human race.
