Article Evaluation
The Great Recession in the United States

1) Everything seems to be up to date and accurate about this article. I read it and it is relevant to the topic. It explains the housing bubble, how it formed, and other very important events that impacted the United States to reach The Great Recession.

2) The article is very neutral, not biased at all. It is straight to the point and explains the occurrence of the tragedy in the U.S crystal clear.

3) In my honest opinion I think they should of added a bit more towards the mortgage bubble and how it formed and less on the recovery of The Great Recession. It would have been better if in the recovery section was kept a bit more brief.

4) All the hyperlinks are working, when I click on the names of buildings, people, or areas it takes me directly to the wiki page of what that area, person, or building is. The source supports the claim as it goes more in depth to what the article is informing us about.

5) There are over 100 citations, this article was written up very well linking facts to the corresponding citation for further understanding of the material or accreditation to the outsource they received the information from. Some of the information cited was coming from The Seattle Times, Reuters, Money CNN, and other online website sources. These sources are neutral and very accurate as they come from trusted sites like money.cnn.com

6) All the information and data is up to date, I saw several citations from 2017-2018. The average citation came from 2010+ and only a few were from when the even happened what in 2007-2008. Everything was pretty much there, like I stated before maybe a little bit of more info towards the mortgage bubble.

7) It was shocking to me how many people are on the Talk tab speaking upon corrections in the article. This is great since that means more people are trying to add accurate information for others like me to read about. I saw a comment stating that the article did not specify when the recession ended and another comment stating that the date was incorrect, which I did not notice until now. There was not much said in the Talk tab due to the fact that the article was pretty accurate only for some slight minuscule errors.

8) This article is pretty solid and accurate, I did not notice if it was part of any WikiProjects.

9) We have not spoken about this in the class, I chose this topic because I knew it had to relate upon business and ethics within business due to the fact that many mortgage loaners were giving out loans to those who they clearly knew were not financially capable of paying it back. If I had to choose a chapter where this article would best fit, it would be chapter three as it discusses integrity and honesty which was very lacking during those times since as I stated before the mortgage loaners were giving nearly anyone a sub-loan.

Week 5 Feburary 5-11
Topics:

1) War of the currents

2) Mars One

3) Partnership on AI

4) The Boring Company

5) SolarCity

Top 3 Topics:

1) Partnership on AI, Notes: limited information, needs to be updated in new partnership companies who have entered the AI world. Relation to course: Is AI exploration ethical? Can the rumors of a huge NetScape type of human extinction occur due to AI? Many scientists are controversial between AI, some for and some against this innovative idea.

2) Mars One, Could use some updates and the addition of current news like SpaceX sending a car into space on its way to mars in hope of viewing mars closer than ever before. Relation to course: Is sending astronauts to mars ethical knowing the risk of this new space exploration? Many incidents can happen to brand new exploration.

3) SolarCity, Can solar panels become more common in the market. Solar city is making solar panels smaller than any other for even cheaper than regular roofing tile. Can use some updates in new projects and information. Relation to course: Can solar panels help the movement of a cleaner environment? Can it possibly raise more competition to these top dog electricity companies like FPL?

Week 6
I am going to go with the three topics I states in week 5.

For Partnership on AI I can add the new developments of AI and how many new companies are adopting it.

The Mars One mission has not been updated with the new Falcon 9 rocket that might be used and the Tesla roadster going to mars as we speak.

Solar city can use an addition of the new and improved tile shaped solar panels which are cheaper than regular roofing tile.

These are just minor some major edits to the articles that can help a lot of people stay updated with information.

Launcher
To create a launcher for the project Mars One received assistance from SpaceX, as their missions are similar but share some slight alterations in the end goal. The Falcon Heavy from SpaceX was the notional launcher in the early Mars One conceptual plan, which included the general use of SpaceX hardware for the lander and crew habitat.

By March 2014, SpaceX indicated that they had been contacted by Mars One, and were in discussions, but that accommodating Mars One requirements would require some additional work and that such action was not a part of the current focus of SpaceX.

As of February 2018, the Falcon Heavy from SpaceX successfully launched a Tesla Roadster into space on route to get a closer look at Mars. This is one of many steps Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX has taken to explore further and colonize Mars which is the Mars One primary purpose in the mission. The Roadster's progress is being tracked by Whereisroadster.com, which takes its information from the Horizons System website run by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The site is unaffiliated with Tesla, SpaceX, or Elon Musk.

The Mars One mission is planned to run with the Falcon 9 from SpaceX once the further discovery of Mars is acquired. The Falcon 9 is a new and improved rocket that has the compatibility of being completely reusable. The first cargo mission to Mars is planned to launch by 2022, followed by a manned cargo mission in 2024.
