Something like that happened in the book "The Martian" by Andy Weir. I loved that part!

I call Andy Weir's stuff Back-of-The-Envelope-Calculation-fic and Chipperfic, because both his The Martian and Project Hail Mary have a ton of back of the envelope calculations and a chipper protagonist. ~_~

Project Hail Mary needs way more attention!

I'm sure it will get more attention when the movie comes out

I am both excited and dreading this. There are some things I just don't know how they can translate into a film.

I got really excited about hexagons

I'm not even sure that's the strangest thing! I'm definitely looking forward to the movie. I just hope they do it justice.
