- **Event Description**: What the film got right and wrong
Andy Weir has become famous for his meticulously researched speculative fiction that features competent, but very human, scientists working seemingly impossible problems, all while hewing as closely as possible to known science and technology.  In his latest book, Project Hail Mary, Weir has raised the stakes from saving a single stranded astronaut (The Martian) to an interstellar long shot mission to save the Earth—and our stellar neighbors.  The heart of the story is two explorers, Dr. Ryland Grace of Earth and Rocky from 40 Eridani A, and their missions to tau Ceti.  Along the way, Weir leans into what we know and what we might guess about the cosmos, and how competence and curiosity are universal.

Meg’s talk will focus on the astronomy and physics of Project Hail Mary, which range from well-known and exciting discoveries in science and technology to the more speculative leaps in imagination.   Join us to learn about exoplanets, space missions and communication, relativity, and more.  How many bean bags will Weir get from this teacher, QUESTION?
