“Okay, let’s never do that again,”- me after seeing Star Trek into Darkness.

Why did it have to be SO on the nose. Everything that became iconic about Indiana Jones (hat, whip, leather jacket, scar on chin) came from one incident?

There’s an MOL spacesuit on display at Science Museum Oklahoma.

An “inside the hab” Mark Watney costume doesn’t look to hard.

Duesberg is still on faculty at UC Berkeley. Last I heard, he had moved on to cancer research.

There should be a “The Martian”-themed dry ice avalanche cocktail along the lines of the Borneo Fog Cutter or the Warp Core Breach at the late, lamented Quark’s Bar in Las Vegas.

Obligatory:

Yes.

The 21-gun salute at the opening ceremony will be awesome!

I’m just going to leave this here.
