Comment Author	Comment
Mrs. Flynt	Use this space to talk to each other and post suggestion, comments, and get organized!
Gabriela	What should our title be?
Mariah	What other things do we need to do? We've already got sources and a bibliography? What's that draft 1 and draft 2?
Gabriela	lets the write what we know about the mission
Taylor	ok and you spelled the wrong I'll fix it
Kayla	I will work with the drafts- you guys keep searching for those links!!!
Kayla	I based the colors in the draft off of a picture of the MGS in orbit
Jessica	I'll look for some pictures and finish the bibliographies!!!
Jack	I will find good pictures.
Gabriela	I think the intro should say why it was built, where, and how long it lasted.
Gabriela	There is also a timeline on my link.
Mariah	I think we need to have the launch date, date landed, type of spacecraft, date stopped working, purpose, and picture, of course, on the page. We can also have links to more information.
Jack	I think there should be at least three pictures, one of the spacecraft (computer animated) second, a picture of it on Earth, and the last one of a picture that it took.
Gabriela	good idea. I think Draft one should have the purpose of the mission, the people that built it and amount of money, reason of failure, and a timeline
Travis	did everyone see the format? post suggestions or revisions to the design.
Gabriela	I think that everyone should just make their ideas on the MGS draft instead of doing different links, so that we all know what's going on
Travis	I made a second MGS draft you can find it in the "show all pages" it is called "a MGS draft 2"
Chris	I don't know if someone already said this, but I think we're pretty set on gathering info.
Chris	The last link I added has some really good info on the loss of contact.
Mariah & Travis	Why does the mgs draft have a picture of a gully?? I think it needs to be placed somewhere else where it fits with the text around it. maybe with pictures it found.
Jack	I put the picture of the gullies on the draft when there was almost nothing on the page. It was a start.
Gabriela	What else do we need? I think we're done. We should make a chat at sometime this week so we can all talk
Gabriela	with the instruments on the MGS draft, is it copied and pasted, or typed without copying the exact words form the website
