A while back I red the book "The Martian" by Andy Weir. I loved it. And in a little over a week the movie will be released. I am waiting to see if they mess it up the way they usually mess up good books when they make them into movies. But a lot of people have been wondering and talking about the science in it. Mostly it looks rather plausible. So just now on Phys.org I found and article about growing potatoes on Mars. The author of the article thinks it seems to be plausible.

Can you grow potatoes on Mars?

Waiting for the movie.
