Alan C. Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 An Alarming Number Of People Think “The Martian” Is A True Story The Martian, the new movie by Ridley Scott starring Matt Damon as an astronaut stranded on Mars, is being rightly praised for its fairly accurate portrayal of science.But maybe it was too realistic, because an alarming number of people out there have come away from the film thinking it is based on a true story.Despite the fact that, y’know, no human has ever set foot on Mars. I never cease to be amazed at just how dumb people are. The degree of credulity and lack of critical thought is astounding.
