Week 10: Refine Wireframes

This week, following my instructor's advice, I updated the homepage of our website to specify that those wishing to book a space elevator trip need to download the official GalaxiLIFT app. Additionally, I conducted extensive research on the structure of the space elevator. I based my explanations on the space elevator depicted in the movie "The Wandering Earth 2," describing each of its main components to the public. I also learned that the space elevator should be built at sea level in the Earth's equatorial region, as this location minimizes the distance from geosynchronous orbit. Moreover, I added information about spacewalks and explanations of two different experiences offered. This week, I also discovered a tool for generating AI images that I find easier to use than Midjourney. It's DALLE in ChatGPT. By conversing with it, I can describe the style of images I want to generate, which I believe allows for a better expression of the desired content and style of the images. Unlike Midjourney, it doesn't just support descriptions in English.
