Ep 94: A Martian Story — Resilience, Persistence, and Working the Problem, and Why It Is Worth It


Listen Later

Harry joins Rafe this week to discuss Andy Weir's The Martian, a book (and movie!) that tells the story of a NASA astronaut inadvertently abandoned on Mars and the struggle by him and essentially all humanity to return him to Earth.

Harry recounts the plot (spoiler alert!) and its lessons, namely that each individual life is of infinite value and thus worth trying to move heaven and earth to bring back home.
