Our third prologue short for Ridley Scott's "The Martian" was produced
to look like a mini-episode of StarTalk from the year 2035, hosted by
Neil deGrasse Tyson from the same year. The video gives viewers a
complete overview of how an Ares mission works, with a focus on the
danger and bravery of the astronauts who undertake the mission. The
Nerdist calls the video "one of the best, most creative, and frankly
most awesome promos for a movie ever."

This video is part of a series of original prologue short films for
Ridley Scott’s “The Martian.” The series depicts a future where mankind
has traveled to Mars, establishes a rich emotional backstory for the
Ares 3 crew, and follows the events of the mission’s disaster with a
sense of urgency as the world watches the story unfold.
