The Fleet Science Center presents, "An Evening With Andy Weir". Andy Weir, author of The Martian, worked as a software engineer. He is a lifelong "space nerd", and has a longstanding interest in subjects like relativistic physics, orbital mechanics, and the manned spaceflight. The Martian is his first novel.
Weir will be joined by the Fleet Science Center’s CEO, Dr. Steven Snyder, for a discussion on the importance of science in storytelling. They will also preview Mr. Weir’s new book, Artemis, due out in November.
This event takes place at the Fleet Science Center, on July 24th. Doors open at 6pm. Books will be available for purchase, and Mr. Weir will be signing after the event. Tickets can be purchased at Eventbrite.
