Photo Raises Concern for Health of Stranded NASA Astronaut
Mark Watney is the first astronaut to be stranded on Mars.
In a recent photo, he appears to be thin and malnourished. This has raised concerns about his health and ability to survive until a rescue mission can reach him.
Watney has been stranded on Mars for over a year.
He has been living off of supplies from his lander and growing food in a small greenhouse. However, his supplies are running low, and his greenhouse is not producing enough food to sustain him indefinitely.
NASA is working on a rescue mission.
However, the mission is still in the planning stages, and it will be several months before it can be launched. In the meantime, Watney is facing a difficult fight for survival.
Watney is a skilled engineer and scientist.
He has been able to use his knowledge to survive on Mars for over a year. However, he is now facing his greatest challenge yet. He must find a way to sustain himself until a rescue mission can reach him.
NASA is confident that Watney will be able to survive.
However, they are also aware that he is facing a difficult challenge. They are doing everything they can to speed up the rescue mission and get Watney home safely.
