Kindell asked Andy Weir:

I've heard they will be adapting "The Martian" into a movie and I was wondering what are your thoughts on this and how involved are you going to be in this process?

Bryan Mcgovern asked Andy Weir:

This question contains spoilers… (view spoiler)[ Mr. Weir loved your novel from beginning to end, and congratulations on the movie project. I was very afraid that the end of such a wonderful novel would've resulted in a tragic one, and was very much surprised to find out it wasn't. How much of a conflict did you had when deciding the finale of your tale? Or was it set from the start? (hide spoiler)]

William Saeednia-Rankin asked Andy Weir:

While reading "The Martian" I appreciated the great mix of puzzle solving and humour. It reminded me of Isaac Asimov, I was wondering if you would consider Dr. Asimov as an influence? PS. Thanks for a great book - I'm looking forward to your next!

Moz asked Andy Weir:

This is an obvious question but how much of the technology has been invented already and how much is just theories?
