What are some of the science errors in the martian?
That's right. Another mistake was when Mark Watney was shown boiling water to make it drinkable. However, at such a low atmospheric pressure on Mars, water boils at a temperature that would also kill any bacteria in it, thus making it safe to drink without boiling.
Interesting, I didn't know that. Another mistake is the way the crew communicates with NASA. The time delay for a signal to travel from Mars to Earth is around 20 minutes, but in the movie the communication is almost instant. This is a major inaccuracy.
