   It's easier to simulate in a small space (or even filmed in reality   
   using the "Vomit Comet"). It requires attaching everything to wires on   
   an overhead gantry system or filming underwater, which is far more   
   difficult and cumbersome in a wide open space than inside a studio. The   
   only other way is to digitally add the pieces in post-production, which   
   makes it difficult for actor interaction.   
      
   Of course, Mars isn't zero gravity, which adds more complication.
