In this episode of The Biollywood Podcast, the Executive Director of the Bipartisan Commission on Biodefense, Dr. Asha M. George, and Research Principal, J.T. O'Brien, discuss the novel Project Hail Mary (2021) by Andy Weir. Premise: Set in the near future, it centers on school-teacher-turned-astronaut Ryland Grace, who wakes up from a coma afflicted with amnesia. He gradually remembers that he was sent to the Tau Ceti solar system, 12 light-years from Earth, to find a means of reversing a solar dimming event that could cause the extinction of humanity. The story follows two storylines, each told chronologically, starting with the story on board the spacecraft Hail Mary where Ryland Grace regains his memory in bursts. This story is frequently intercut with flashbacks revealing earlier events leading up to the launch of the Hail Mary Learn more about the Bipartisan Commission on Biodefense here.

In today's episode, we read the science fiction novel, Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir. The book follows Ryland Grace, a teacher-turned-astronaut, who needs to save humanity before the sun dims too much and Earth freezes over. During this episode, we talk about the most wholesome friendship we've read so far, what we would do if we ever met an alien, and the most efficient way to get things done. How will Project Hail Mary compare to the last Andy Weir book we read, The Martian? Listen to hear our thoughts!
A lone astronaut.An impossible mission.An ally he never imagined.Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the earth itself will perish.Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it.All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.His crewmates dead, his memories fuzzily returning, Ryland realizes that an impossible task now confronts him. Hurtling through space on this tiny ship, it's up to him to puzzle out an impossible scientific mystery-and conquer an extinction-level threat to our species.And with the clock ticking down and the nearest human being light-years away, he's got to do it all alone.Or does he?It was great fun this week to record with Mark Shapiro, host of the pheomenonally successful podcast Explore the Space https://www.explorethespaceshow.com/ which has a mission of "Examining the interface between healthcare & society, with thought leaders from across the spectrum."This was one of the first Sci-Fi genre novels I've ever picked up and I admit I was well out of my comfort zone with a lot of the theoretical physics (which Mark tells me I don't need to understand, just believe). Project Hail Mary is at its heart a book about connection and about the value of saving our planet, and humanity. I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation about the amazing community of practice that is #MedTwitter, the joy of reading, accidental CPD, equity, climate change and so much more.Follow Mark on Twitter: https://twitter.com/ETSshow

Bienvendio a un nuevo episodio de Viajero de Libros. Mi nombre es Victor y soy un bibliotecario aquí en la Biblioteca Publica de Largo. Hoy les voy a hablar de un libro de ciencia ficción que se titula Proyecto Hail Mary por Andy Weir. Ryland Grace es el único superviviente en una misión desesperada. Es la última oportunidad y, si fracasa, la humanidad y la Tierra misma perecerán. Claro que, de momento, él no lo sabe. Ni siquiera puede recordar su propio nombre, y mucho menos la naturaleza de su misión o cómo llevarla a cabo. Lo único que sabe es que ha estado en coma inducido durante mucho mucho tiempo. Acaba de despertar y se encuentra a millones de kilómetros de su hogar, sin más compañía que la de dos cadáveres. Muertos sus compañeros de tripulación, y a medida que va recuperando confusamente los recuerdos, Grace se da cuenta de que se enfrenta a una misión imposible. Recorriendo el espacio en una pequeña nave, depende de él acabar con una amenaza de extinción para nuestra especie. Sin apenas tiempo y con el ser humano más cercano a años luz de distancia, habrá de conseguirlo estando completamente solo. ¿O no? Proyecto Hail Mary, una aventura interestelar irresistible como solo Andy Weir podía imaginar, es una historia de descubrimiento, especulación y supervivencia a la altura de El marciano, que nos lleva a lugares que nunca soñamos alcanzar. Opinión: La novela tiene un ritmo narrativo caótico, pero esto hace que la narrativa se mueva rápido y atrape la atención del lector. La novela sigue la historia de Ryland Grace mientras trata de salvar el Planeta Tierra de una inevitable era glacial, luego del descubrimiento que el Sol se esta apagando por una especie invasora que esta consumiendo su energía. Luego de esta noticia el gobierno decide formar un equipo de tres astronautas para que vayan a buscar respuestas al problema y evitar que el Sol se apague. Una vez llegan a su destino y Ryland despierta de su coma inducido, se da cuenta que esta solo y que sus compañeros no sobrevivieron el viaje. No solo está solo, pero también sufre de amnesia repentina y no se acuerda cuál es su propósito en el espacio y porque esta en una nave espacial. Ryland va recobrando su memoria y por medio de flashbacks redescubre cuál es su misión de salvar el Sol pero pronto se da cuenta que los humanos no son los únicos seres vivientes que están tratando de salvar el Sol. La novela es interesante y creativa con una historia muy emociónate. Queda muy recomendado. Outro: Es todo por hoy. Hasta la próxima edición de Viajero de Libros. Hasta luego.
What do you get when you mix an alien with jazz hands, too many scientific references, and a hint of cannibalism? A really tough read. Project Hail Mary follows Ryland Grace, the sole survivor on a spaceship where he can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. Hurtling through space on this tiny ship, it's up to him to puzzle out an impossible scientific mystery—and conquer an extinction-level threat to our species. And with the clock ticking down and the nearest human being light-years away, he's got to do it all alone…or does he? Our Sci-fi expert, Ella Kopeikin, joins me today to talk about this hot mess of a 400-page book we had to endure. In this episode we cover: Why we REALLY disliked this book (some would say hate) Why the necessity of an alien doing jazz hands was beyond us How this book has 4.5 stars on Goodreads…just, how?!

A catastrophic particle is eating away the energy of our sun. Earth is on course for another Ice Age. According to the smartest scientists, humanity's existence is on the brink of extinction. However, there might be a small chance for a solution. 13 Light Years away, in another solar system, the solution for this problem has been found. Ryland Grace, a scientist and high school teacher, finds himself on the spaceship heading there. During his trip, he finds dead bodies, a solution to help earth and aliens. BUT.... he doesn't have a way to make it back home. A story filled with laughs, science, and a lot of drama, Andy Weir (author of The Martian) gives an account of the most realistic alien encounter yet. He paints the perfect image of the bleakness of humanity and how far we're willing to go to do the "right thing". Join us on this episode as we talk about all the intricacies that this book has to offer and the deep storyline that Weir has created for his readers.
What is Project Hail Mary? How does it relate to the Fermi Paradox and Drakes equation. Andy Weir built a two-decade career as a software engineer until the success of his first published novel, The Martian, allowed him to live out his dream of writing full-time. He is a lifelong space nerd and a devoted hobbyist of such subjects as relativistic physics, orbital mechanics, and the history of manned spaceflight. Project Hail Mary is Andy Weir's newest book. In Project Hail Mary, a lone astronaut must save the earth from disaster. Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. Want to support the channel?

Andy Weir got famous writing about a man stranded in an isolated environment who uses science and pluck to solve his way out of danger; in Project Hail Mary, he flexes his authorial talents to their limit with a novel about a man stranded in an isolated environment who uses science and pluck to solve his way out of danger. Join Brock, Summer, and Dan as we discuss Ryland Grace's portentous name, watching aliens poop, and how Weir blends hard and soft science fiction to tremendous effect.
In einer Bonusfolge haben wir schon das Buch von Andy Weir gelesen, für das er bekannt geworden ist: "Der Marsianer". Sein neuestes (insgesamt drittes) Buch klingt wie ein Aufguss des Marsbesuchers - doch ist viel mehr. So viel mehr, dass wir schon Probleme damit haben, dass der Klappentext zu viel verrät. Deswegen widmen wir uns diesem besonders ausführlich, denn wir wollen nicht zu viel verraten. Das tun wir auch, aber im Spoilerteil. Der titelgebende Astronaut ist Ryland Grace. Er kommt in einem Raumschiff zu sich und weiß nicht, wie er dort gelandet ist oder was seine Mission ist. Nach und nach kommen die Erinnerungen zurück, und er beginnt zu verstehen, warum das Raumschiff Hail Mary heißt ... Diese SF ist genau unsere Kragenweite.

UN ALIADO QUE JAMÁS HABRÍA IMAGINADO. Ryland Grace es el único superviviente en una misión desesperada. Es la última oportunidad y, si fracasa, la humanidad y la Tierra misma perecerán. Claro que, de momento, él no lo sabe. Ni siquiera puede recordar su propio nombre, y mucho menos la naturaleza de su misión o cómo llevarla a cabo. Lo único que sabe es que ha estado en coma inducido durante mucho mucho tiempo. Acaba de despertar y se encuentra a millones de kilómetros de su hogar, sin más compañía que la de dos cadáveres. Muertos sus compañeros de tripulación, y a medida que va recuperando confusamente los recuerdos, Grace se da cuenta de que se enfrenta a una misión imposible. Recorriendo el espacio en una pequeña nave, depende de él acabar con una amenaza de extinción para nuestra especie. Sin apenas tiempo y con el ser humano más cercano a años luz de distancia, habrá de conseguirlo estando completamente solo. ¿O no? Proyecto Hail Mary, una aventura interestelar irresistible como solo Andy Weir podía imaginar, es una historia de descubrimiento, especulación y supervivencia a la altura de El marciano, que nos lleva a lugares que nunca soñamos alcanzar.#Audiolibro #Audiolibros #PenguinAudio #AndyWeir #Andy #Weir See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

ABOUT PROJECT HAIL MARY A lone astronaut must save the earth from disaster in this “propulsive” (Entertainment Weekly) new science-based thriller from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Martian. Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission—and if he fails, humanity and the earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that.

Hurtling through space on this tiny ship, it's up to him to puzzle out an impossible scientific mystery—and conquer an extinction-level threat to our species. And with the clock ticking down and the nearest human being light-years away, he's got to do it all alone. Or does he?
