Meanwhile, the Hab's airlock blows out, exposing the Hab to the harsh Martian environment, killing all the potato plants. Mars missions director Vincent Kapoor and Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) director Bruce Ng prepare a space probe to deliver enough food for Watney to survive until Ares IV's arrival. Sanders finally allows Henderson to inform Watney's crewmates. NASA transmits a software patch to link the mission's rover with Pathfinder, enabling communication by text. Using Pathfinder 's camera and motor, he establishes visual contact with NASA. Watney takes the rover on a one-month journey to retrieve the Pathfinder probe, which fell silent in 1997, and its associated Sojourner rover. NASA director Teddy Sanders releases the news to the public but decides not to tell the Ares III crew so that they will remain focused on their mission, over flight director Mitch Henderson's strong objection. On Earth, NASA satellite planner Mindy Park, reviewing satellite images, notices moved equipment and realizes Watney must be alive. He also begins modifying the rover for the journey to the Ares IV MAV site. He then cultivates potatoes using whole potatoes reserved for a special Thanksgiving meal. Watney's immediate concern is food being a botanist, he creates a garden inside the Hab using Martian soil fertilized with the crew's bio-waste and manufactures water from leftover rocket fuel. Unable to communicate with Earth, his only chance of rescue is the next Mars mission in four years, the Ares IV will land 3,200 kilometers (2,000 mi) away at the Schiaparelli crater. As Watney recovers, he begins a video diary. He returns to the crew's surface habitat ("Hab") and treats his wound. Watney awakens after the storm, injured and with a low-oxygen warning. With the MAV on the verge of toppling, the remaining crew takes off for their orbiting vessel, the Hermes, leaving Watney behind. The telemetry from his suit's bio-monitor is damaged, and Watney is erroneously presumed dead. The mission is abandoned, but as the crew evacuates, astronaut Mark Watney is struck by debris. A severe dust storm threatens to topple their Mars Ascent Vehicle (MAV).
