Ridley Scott’s The Martian features one of the most realistic space exploration missions ever presented on the big screen. To highlight the film’s commitment to authenticity, we partnered with pop culture’s favorite scientist—Neil deGrasse Tyson—to create a stunning CG mini-episode of his show StarTalk set in the year 2035. Neil—aged to look 20 years older—broke down the real-life science of the mission and provided key details about the film’s fictional space program.
