    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      The filmmakers created the Martian landscape in a massive sandpit near Vancouver. It was one of the biggest sets ever constructed for a movie - around two million square feet.
    • Goofs
      (at around 1h 18 mins) While looking at a DNA sequence Terri Fisher says that the last two chromosomes are missing. What is missing is actually the last two nucleotides of the sequence. DNA does not have chromosomes. Rather, chromosomes are comprised of DNA, and a single chromosome will contain many tens or hundreds of millions of nucleotides.
    • Quotes
      • Terri Fisher: The genetic difference between men and apes is only three percent. But that three percent gave us Einstein, Mozart...
      • Phil Ohlmyer: ...Jack The Ripper.
    • Crazy credits
      The National Aeronautics and Space Administration's cooperation and assistance does not reflect an endorsement of the contents of the film or the treatment of the characters depicted therein.
