Great post! The Martian is one of my favorite books and seeing how science or better, the scientific method can transform a hellish situation into a methodical series of steps is amazing.

The two biggest lessons I took away from The Martian was:

1. Trust the process and with patience, everything will fall into place.
2. Communication is key. Without it, the mission would have been a complete failure!

Thanks for the content! Keep it up :)
