This episode covers the full production history: Andy Weir going from self-publishing The Martian online to a $3 million deal before PHM even hit shelves, Lord & Miller's practical no-greenscreen approach, and how Rocky, a physical alien puppet built by the Star Wars creature team, was performed live on set in every single scene.
