341 Words1 Page

The Martian is about an astronaut, Mark Watney, who gets stranded on the surface of Mars for over 500 days without anyone knowing, at first. He has to survive in the martian atmosphere by creating his own water and even growing his own plants! Mark sets out from his HAB on a rover to travel a distance to an old rover named Sojourner. He brings back Sojourner hoping to connect communication with Earth. Mark soon becomes low on supplies and needs help soon. Will Mark achieve communication with Earth and miraculously get rescued? I really enjoyed this book! This was definitely one of my favorite reads. The reason I thought this was such a great book was because of many elements. First, was the setting. The setting of my book took place on Mars!
