During a manned mission to Mars, Astronaut Mark Watney is presumed dead
after a fierce storm and left behind by his crew. But Watney has
survived and finds himself stranded and alone on the hostile planet.
With only meager supplies, he must draw upon his ingenuity, wit and
spirit to subsist and find a way to signal to Earth that he is alive.
Millions of miles away, NASA and a team of international scientists work
tirelessly to bring "the Martian" home, while his crewmates
concurrently plot a daring, if not impossible, rescue mission. As these
stories of incredible bravery unfold, the world comes together to root
for Watney's safe return. Written by
