GR810_OL2: Thesis

Instructor: Laurie Makela

Week 12

This week, I made some changes and additions to the website, one of which was the integration of the space elevator structure introduction page with the Space Activity introduction page. This was based on feedback received during user testing, where it was suggested that continuously clicking the "Learn More" button was too cumbersome and repetitive. Additionally, following the instructor's advice, I added viewing times for celestial bodies and constellations to the Space Observation page. These times are divided into the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter, and introduce the constellations, celestial bodies, and special astronomical events observable in each season based on California's geographical location. I also replaced the purple box pop-up on the website with an image of a waving spacewalker, another suggestion from the instructor. After updating the website, I focused on developing a part of the App's wireframes, including the pages for booking Space Elevator travel and the electronic ticket.
