Botany, duct tape, and orbital dynamics—just another day on Mars! Join the Back Bay Amateur Astronomers to explore where science fiction meets science fact in Andy Weir’s The Martian.

This first of a new series of events focuses on emphasizing the actual science in many popular modern and classic works of science fiction.  Free to all, it starts in the small classroom on the first floor of Chesapeake Central Library.  Conditions permitting, astronomy observing will follow on the "front porch" of the library after the presentation.
