    public Button mThrustButton;
    public TextView mTypeLabel;

Hello ma ali,

Please describe exactly what problem you are having and provide any error messages you may be given. This will help us to understand the issue.

Thanks!

Finally, notice that our Spaceship class has a new field to store the number of passengers in the ship. Use the method to get the number of passengers for mSpaceship, and then set the text for mPassengersField to this value. Note: You will need to convert the int value to a String!

You are repeating a lot of code.

LandingActivity.java
import android.widget.EditText;

public class LandingActivity extends Activity {

    public Button mThrustButton;
    public TextView mTypeLabel;
    public EditText mPassengersField;

    public Spaceship mSpaceship;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_landing);

        mThrustButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.thrustButton);
        mTypeLabel = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.typeTextView);
        mPassengersField = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.passengersEditText);

        // Add your code here!
       mSpaceship = new Spaceship("FIREFLY");
       mTypeLabel.setText(mSpaceship.getType());

        mPassengersField.setText(Integer.toString(mSpaceship.getNumPassengers()));
    }
}

Based on what you said this should work.

Goodluck!
