Good meme but also I’m guessing they don’t really mind lol
Bone density loss, radiation exposure, extended recovery time post microgravity.
I’m sure they mind as much as all those things matter.
I also imagine you prep very differently for an 8 day mission vs a 6 month mission. In terms of physical fitness, trainings, family life etc.
Psychological fitness, too. 8 days away from civilizations is a very different mental state to get into than 8 months away.
Imagine being stuck in a space station 250 miles away from the human population for 8 months with one other person and they have some annoying roommate quirk, like snoring in their sleep
Imagine not being able to wank to your preferred porn because of fucking Houston.
I hope they have Surfshark and Librewolf installed up there.
And because of “The Martian”, people think going to and living on Mars would be a snap.
We can’t even rescue people from orbit.
I read the book, it’s hardly a snap. The guy drinks his own piss and eats potatoes fertilized by his own shit for like two years.
That would potentially poison him. Human, dog, cat, and generally any carnivore/ omnivore shit is considered “hot,” and must be treated before use as manure.
The perchlorates in the Martian regolith he uses for most of the soil would kill him faster.
It’s FICTION. Not real. Never happened. All events portrayed in this movie aren’t real.
It is good fiction - possibly the best sci-fi movie to come along in a while, but nevertheless it’s still fiction.
No shit? Do you think I thought it was a documentary?
I read interviews with the author where he goes into detail on his research to make the main character’s survival plausible, and it’s fascinating stuff.
I have no idea what you think other than what you’ve written.
Do you not understand that concept?
