Most of the science I remembered (in bits and pieces) from college chemistry and high school physics.

I think that the humor will translate well as long as they don't censor it too heavily. Watney is a foul mouth star-sailor and that's a pretty big part of the color in his interactions with mission control.

Really dig your name too by the way.

Nice!

I think it'll translate nicely as long as they make Damon a narrator of his own actions and don't make it look like he's literally talking to himself. Although, that may make for an interesting character, like a Martian Castaway.

Thanks! I love the idea of mentats, and I loved Dune!
