"While stuck by himself on the red planet, Watney is very literally the most isolated person to ever live—more than ten times more distant from any other human being than even the Apollo astronauts were when they visited the Moon."

When furthest away, the Moon is ~400,000 km away from Earth.

When closest, Mars is ~54,000,000 km away. 

That is more than ten times more distant, I guess.
